[Intro]
It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place
Except you and me
So set 'em up, Joe, I've got a little story
That you oughta know
[Chorus]
We're drinking, my friend, to the end of a brief episode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
[Verse 1]
I got the routine, trap another nickel in the machine (Nickel, oh gosh)
I'm feelin' so bad, I wish you'd make the music dreamy and sad
I could tell you a lot, but you've gotta be true to your code
So make it one for my baby and one more for the road
[Verse 2]
You'd never know it, buddy, I'm a kind of poet
And I've got a lot of things to say
And when I'm gloomy, simply gotta listen to me until they're all talked away
[Refrain]
That's how it goes, Joe, I know you're gettin' anxious to close
So thanks for the cheer, I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear
It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place
Except you and me
So set 'em up, Joe, I've got a little story
That you oughta know
[Chorus]
We're drinking, my friend, to the end of a brief episode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
[Verse 1]
I got the routine, trap another nickel in the machine (Nickel, oh gosh)
I'm feelin' so bad, I wish you'd make the music dreamy and sad
I could tell you a lot, but you've gotta be true to your code
So make it one for my baby and one more for the road
[Verse 2]
You'd never know it, buddy, I'm a kind of poet
And I've got a lot of things to say
And when I'm gloomy, simply gotta listen to me until they're all talked away
[Refrain]
That's how it goes, Joe, I know you're gettin' anxious to close
So thanks for the cheer, I hope you didn't mind my bending your ear
