This song features John Mayer so I wanted to learn it. But the lyrics I found online are really inaccurate. Here's a corrected version. TB is for Tony Bennett and JM is for John Mayer.
TB: Hey John
JM: Yes sir
TB: Cmon, let's have a drink
JM: If you insist
TB:
It's quarter to three,
There's no one in the place
Except you and me
Set 'em' up Joe,
Set 'em' up Joe,
You know John I got a little story
That you oughta know
Wait till you hear about this
That you oughta know
Wait till you hear about this
We're drinking my friend,
To the end
Of a brief episode (I'm telling you that's what happened)
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
(Here's to you)
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
(Here's to you)
JM:
I got the routine, (TB: Oh no you too)
So drop another nickel in the machine
Man I'm feelin so bad, (TB: Wow)
Man I'm feelin so bad, (TB: Wow)
I wish you'ld make the music dreamy and sad
I could tell you a lot, (TB: You too right)
I could tell you a lot, (TB: You too right)
But you've got to be true to your code
Both:
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
And one more for the road
TB: You'd never know it, but buddy I'm a kind of poet
Yeah that's right, I've got a lot of things to say
Yeah that's right, I've got a lot of things to say
JM: And when I'm goony, you simply gotta listen to me
until it's talked away
TB: Let's have another drink, bartender, fill it up again, will you
TB: That's how it goes, John I know your gettin very anxious to close
(JM: You don't know me well)
JM:
Tony thanks for the cheer
I hope you don't mind me
Bending your ear
I hope you don't mind me
Bending your ear
TB:
Cause this torch that I found, must be drowned
Or it soon might explode
Or it soon might explode
Both:
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
Make it one for my baby
And one more for the road
(TB: Take it home now)
Both:
That long, (long), long road
That long, (long), long road
(TB: Let's leave a tip, sleep tight)
