Bennett, Tony - One For My Baby Lyrics






It's quarter to three, there's no one in the place
Except you and me
So set 'em' up Joe, I got a little story
I think you should know
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 know the routine, put another nickel
In the machine
I feel kind of bad, can't you make the music
Easy and sad
I could tell you a lot, but it's not
In a gentleman's 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've got a lot of things I'd like to say
And if I'm gloomy, please listen to me
Till it's talked away
Well that's how it goes, and Joe I know your gettin'
Anxious to close
Thanks for the cheer
I hope you didn't mind
My bending your ear
But this torch that I found, It's gotta be drowned
Or it's gonna explode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road

    Son las dos y cuarenta y cinco, 
    no hay nadie en el lugar. 
    Sólo tú y yo. 

    Así que siéntalos Joe, 
    tengo una pequeña historia 
    que tienes que saber. 
    Estamos bebiendo amigo mío 
    al final de un breve episodio. 

    Así que tráeme un trago para mi bebé, 
    y uno más para el camino. 

    Sé la rutina 
    así que pon otro centavo 
    en esa máquina. 
    ¿Harás la música 
    hermosa y triste? 
    Te podría decir mucho, 
    pero tú tienes que ser verdadera a tú código. 

    Así que tráeme un trago para mi bebé, 
    y uno más para el camino. 

    Tú nunca lo sabrías 
    pero amigo, soy un tipo de poeta. 
    Y tengo un montón de cosas que me gustaríadecir. 
    Y sí estoy triste, 
    por favor, escúchame. 

    Hasta que todo se haya ido. 

    Bueno, eso es lo que pasa. 
    Y Joe, lo sé. 
    Te estás poniendo muy ansioso por cerrar. 
    Así que gracias por la alegría. 
    Espero que no te importe, 
    mi curva en tu oído. 

    Esta antorcha que he encontrado 
    tiene que ser ahogada. 
    O pronto explotará. 

    Así que tráeme un trago para mi bebé, 
    y uno más para el camino. 
    Es largo, hombre, es largo. 
    Es un largo camino.

  15. V.... B....

    Love how he tries to be like Sinatra with the jokes.. great duo

  16. D.... W....

    Love Tony Bennett, but I don't like this version of this song.

  17. G.... L....

    Divos! 🎷🎺

  18. M.... D....

    “You’d never know it, Butt Buddy” poor editing for the win

  19. B.... E....

    Love Tony giving him the thumbs up half way... fab..

  20. B.... E....

    I read Mayer was SO nervous.. he is wringing his hands on this video before he started.. he was fantastic..

  21. e.... b....

    sinatra maybe have the best version but bette midler have the heart and soul version

  22. R.... F....

    If John Mayer did this kind of music omg dead

  23. S.... K....

    Wow awesome duet by two greats, one young one young at heart, Johnny looks a little in awe, and well he should be!

  24. M.... c....

    Tremenda cancion

  25. J.... L....

    Johns voice fits perfectly with this type of music!!

  26. O.... M....

    John seems a bit nervous tho

    O.... M....

    Olivier Messelink hell yeah man, he's singing with Tony fucking Bennett. He's a legend

    O.... M....

    no guitar in his hands. a soldier without his best weapon. just bare hands. not usual...

    O.... M....

    He's out of his element and comfort zone which is always a nerve-wracking place to be. I give him huge kudos for taking the performance on at all and think he did a great job. 👍😊

    O.... M....

    Could you blame him for being nervous??? That's Tony Friggin' Bennett!

  27. C.... S....

    Can anybody please tell me the genre for this type of music.

    C.... S....

    CHINMAY SATI Jazz or Big Band

  28. M.... B....

    John seemed so shy to play along with the conversational vibe Tony was doin haha

  29. C.... C....

    Love this <3

  30. T.... M....

    These Duets have got to be one of the best kick back with a glass of wine and watch these on a full screen with good company. LOVE IT !!!!

    T.... M....

    Teri-Ann Murphy - You just gave me a dream

    T.... M....

    I can’t agree with you more

  31. J.... H....

    Fantastic performance,great song...Happy 90th Tony !!!!! Wishing you many,many more !!!!

  32. T.... B....

  33. o.... c....

    This still always makes me laugh, it's like they are just having a chat through it.

  34. R.... A....

    This man without a guitar with him is just not usual.

    R.... A....

    so true haha

    R.... A....

    hes doing more than fine without his best weapon.

    R.... A....

  40. J.... ....

    wow cool

  41. B.... E....

    Fabulous chart, great musicality. Mayer's reading is fantastic.. Tony laid back and let him do his thing..

  42. T.... T....

    Frank sinatra version still the best

    T.... T....

    its not a duet.. and as a duet with these two, it is fabulous.. Saw Frank do it a few times.. yep, a showstopper

    T.... T....

    Sinatra's kind of 1000000 times better for me hahaha

  43. V.... C....

    The only time I've ever heard Mayer sing without his guitar. Yep, still in love.

  44. G.... V....

    This is way too cool. 

    G.... V....

    Best video you've ever shared <3

    G.... V....

    @Mapaseka Setlhodi Best comment you ever made <3

  45. T.... F....

    How cool is this..

  46. C.... W....

    from a dance "   there was @ that code of a tour  of  "   tour of one  to you from a " team of life                 over  

    C.... W....

    from a tour of a Marine   thank you bro ""   from a tour of two boots  on there  ground  "   over   to cool bro  

  47. H.... K....

    What would a tune like this be called i'm wondering, Big Band? Swing? If someone would clear that up for me, thanks

    H.... K....

    Traditional pop/jazz?

    H.... K....

    +Hong Koon Lim Jazz. Big band/Swing are just sub-names, it's jazz overall.

    H.... K....

    The actual classification from back in the day, was pop, believe it or not. Jazz/swing/big band

  48. J.... R....

    Don't understand how a video like this could only have 98k views while a Justin Bieber has hundreds of millions...

    J.... R....

    +Jonathan Reyes 1% of humans shape the future of humanity.

    J.... R....

    +mamabraga best things come in small packages

    J.... R....

    Because enthusiasts of music like these are possessive.

    J.... R....

    Hate to sound like an elitist, but you cannot expect the majority to know what in the world is going on. Sheep, a clueless mass of nimrods with no personal discernment.

  49. 9.... ....

    Smoothest song i`ve heard in decades. Love it!

  50. A.... O....

    ... And one for the road!

  51. M.... J....

    "John I know you're getting very anxious to close..." 
    "You don't know me well, then..." lol

    M.... J....

    Alex van der Linden love Mr. Bennett's smile after that, clearly wasn't expecting it!

  52. d.... y....

    smooth as , can be ,,

  53. S.... H....

    Esto si es musica.

  54. J.... S....

    I love John....... 

  55. E.... ....

    john is a really great singer...he sings jazz in a spectacular way!! I'm impressed...

  56. F.... ....

    Its actually played by many styles. search for One for my baby by Sammy Davis Junior :) its a more uptempo kind of style back in the 60's

  57. A.... D....

    * Mr Bennet

  58. S.... ....

    I'm so happy i found this :)

  59. p.... t....

    i like it but bette midler singing it to jonny carson is the best ever.

  60. B.... K....

    He's so awkward.

  61. D.... ....

    It is a Jazz Blues... If you want to know more about jazz.. listen to miles davis john coltrane and thos guys... If you want a bit more soul listen to norah jones amy winehouse or gregory porter ;)

  62. G.... d....

    Beautiful!

  63. v.... a....

    John Mayer quiero que me cantes esta cancion al oido (L

  64. M.... ....

    Probably jazz.

  65. S.... ....

    i hate being naive about music but what type of genre is this i need to check out some more?

  66. R.... E....

    Tony's voice, even when he's talking, sends you to another place, another era, in your mind. I absolutely love him and the music he makes. He keeps an older, purer, truer kind of music alive...

  67. N.... M....

    Mr. John in a suit??this was a stretch..love him all the way!

  68. G.... W....

    It R O C K S!

  69. k.... ....

    i thought the same ! haha

  70. k.... ....

    this is so good ! John Mayer you're killing me

  71. C.... L....

    John is such a babe!

  72. R.... ....

    Drummer, upright bass and piano

  73. R.... ....

    Tony Bennett is truly amazing. I saw his show years ago in Vegas on New Years Eve with what seemed like front row seats and not sure since I had the flu. Nevertheless, I enjoyed every minute and will always remember Tony up there with just a few instruments (upright bass, piano and maybe a trumpet) and he sounded absolutely fantastic.

  74. K.... Y....

    Smooth as fuck.

  75. Z.... B....

    john mayer without a guitar on his hands!! :O

  76. Z.... ....

    i watched this on pbs and john said he was nervous. ... you can tell .. but that didnt change his lovely performance :) <3

  77. Z.... ....

  78. v.... a....

  82. d.... ....

    don't invite JM without his guitar ffs

  83. S.... M....

    i can't concentrate that much because of the annoying face of nicki minaj. f*ck

  84. J.... T....

    Why does this video only have 33,566 view ? Why only 393 likes ? These 3 dislikes have no taste !

  85. J.... T....

    What a Killer Combination !!! Tony Bennett and John Mayer !!!
    They should be doing a Whole Album together !!!! Never would leave the Number 1 Spot !!!!

  86. b.... ....

    why, I had goosebumps! Why?

  87. S.... H....

    I'm so inlove with john and this song makes me love him more!!!

  88. D.... ....

    Best thing ive ever heard.

  89. K.... W....

    I don't like how they sped the melody up, it takes away from the theme of the song. Which is a lonely guy at a bar drinking. Still a great song though.

  90. M.... B....

    get well soon John Mayer...

  91. K.... Y....

    I don't understand how DUDE GAGA has more views. -____-

  92. T.... A....
