It's A Quarter T' Three,
There's No One In The Place Except You An' Me.
So, Set 'em Up Joe, I've Got A Little Story That You Otta Kno.
We're Drinkin' My Friend, T' The End Of A Brief Episode,
Make It One For Ma Baby An' One More For The Road . . .

I Got The Routine, So Drop Another Nickel In The Machine,
I'm Feelin' So Bad, I Wish You'd Make The Music Dreamy An' Sad,
Could Tell You A Lot, But You've Got To Be True To Your 'code'
Make It One For Ma Baby, One More For The Road . . .

You'd Never Kno' It, But Buddy, I'm Kind Of A Poet,
And I've 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 Kno' You're Gettin' Anxious T' Close,
So Thanks For The Cheer, I Hope You Didn't Mind My Bendin' Your Ear . . .
This Torch That I've Found, Must Be Drowned Or It Soon Will Explode,
Make It One For Ma Baby, An' One More For The Road . . .

That Long, Long Road!
