Testo One For My Baby Ella Fitzgerald
Itâs quarter to three, thereâs no one in the place
Except you and me
So set âemâ up joe, I got a little story
I think you should know
Weâre 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, canât you make the music
Easy and sad
I could tell you a lot, but itâs not
In a gentlemanâs code
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
Youâd never know it, but buddy Iâm a kind of poet
And Iâve got a lot of things Iâd like to say
And if Iâm gloomy, please listen to me
Till itâs talked away
Well thatâs how it goes, and joe I know your gettinâ
Anxious to close
Thanks for the cheer
I hope you didnât mind
My bending your ear
But this torch that I found, itâs gotta be drowned
Or itâs gonna explode
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
