Текст Nellie McKay – One For My Baby (And One More For The Road)

It’s quarter to three
There’s no-one in the place
Except you and me
So set ’em up Joe

We’re drinking my friend
To the end of a brief episode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

I’ve got the routine
So put another nickel in the machine
I’m feeling so bad
I wish you’d make the music dreamy and sad

Could tell you a lot
But you’ve got to be true to your code
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

You’d never know it
But buddy I’m a kind of poet
And I got a lot of things to say
And when I’m gloomy
You simply gotta listen to me
Until it’s talked away

Well, that’s how it goes
And Joe I know you’re getting anxious to close
So thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn’t mind my bending your ear

This touch that I’ve found
Must be drowned or it soon might explode
