Frank Sinatra - One For My Baby (And One More For The Road) 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 drinkin', my friend, to the end of a brief episode
Make it one for my baby and one more for the road

I got the routine, put another nickel in the machine
I'm feelin' so bad, can't you make the music easy and sad
I could tell you a lot, but you've got to be true to your code
Just 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 I'd like to say
And when I'm gloomy, won't you listen to me
Till it's talked away

Well that's how it goes and Joe, I know your gettin' anxious to close
And thanks for the cheer, I hope you didn't mind my bendin' your ear
But this torch that I found it's gotta be drowned or it soon might explode
So, make it one for my baby and one more for the road
The long, it's so long, the long, very long ...

    Absolutely beautiful late night drinking song

  38. A.... C....

    It's quarter to three
    There's no one in the place 'cept you and me
    So set 'em' up joe
    I got a little story I think you oughtta know

    We're drinking my friend
    To the end of a brief episode
    So make it one for my baby
    And one more for the road

    I know the routine
    Put another nickel in that there machine
    I'm feeling so bad
    Won't you make the music easy and sad

    I could tell you a lot
    But you gotta to be true to your code
    So 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 want to say
    And if I'm gloomy, please listen to me
    Till it's all, all talked away

    Well, that's how it goes
    And joe I know you're gettin' anxious to close
    So 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 soon might explode
    So make it one for my baby
    And one more for the road

  39. s.... ....

    JUST A LINE TO SAY HOW I KNOW HOW HE FEELS, MET A "DAY TRIPPER" WHO JUST WANTED TO BREAK HEARTS!

  40. J.... M....

    Fits Sinatra to a tee, but let's face it, musically, the tune is vastly over-rated----I don't care that it was composed by Arlen and Mercer.

  41. P.... B....

    Let's just say Sinatra had the keys to the Great American Songbook for a long , long while...maybe the best "keeper of our flame".

  42. R.... C....

    The greatest music video of all time..so much emotion ..

  43. S.... R....

    Wit a great voice, Frank was also a humanitarian: bringing Sammy Davis Jr. into the limelight, and not playing gigs that restricted blacks, and Jews..

  44. C.... S....

    simply great!

  45. M.... P....

    Love that he's sitting there, singing with that iconic voice, smoking a cigarette.

    M.... P....

    Thanks Milly for checking in with us.

  46. S.... N....

    Is this the first pop video?

  47. C.... A....

    Sinatra sang this for decades and this last version was the end of a long process of changes

  48. B.... J....

    ..fascinating..

  49. M.... ....

    I'll bet that he thought of Ava Gardner while singing this song each time. Such a powerful and emotional song when he performed it.

    M.... ....

    MrFirststudentbus ...Ava really did a number on him.

  50. V.... P....

    An American classic. To the old days gentlemen.

  51. f.... ....

    Blade runner 2049

  52. �.... �....

    Гениально

  53. J.... H....

    2018 and this man is still relevant!!!! Cheers

  54. m.... m....

    Great song, will last forever

  55. L.... J....

    Man, I thought it was a revenge story about a guy finding his wife's murderer. And the 'one' in the song's title was the bullet that went into the killer's head.

  56. F.... F....

    The Best Saloon Singer,

    F.... F....

  69. 1.... ....

    This song found me at my lowest. Lying in a piss covered mattress in a crack den bed sit high on whatever substance I preferred at the time I switched the channel to find this man serenading me with this song. Frank Sinatra. I’ve been a fan ever since, he has always been with me through my recovery his voice is so universal and inspiring. In a way I believe Sinatra found me, not the other way round.

    1.... ....
