Lido missed the boat That day he left the shack But that was all he missed He ain't comin' back At a tombstone bar In a juke-joint car he made a stop Just long enough To grab a handle off the top Next stop Chi'town Lido put the money down Let her roll He say, "one more job oughta get it One last shot 'fore we quit it" One for the road
Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh.... He's for the money, he's for the show Lido's a-waitin' for another go Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.... He said, "one more job oughta get it" "One last shot, we quit it" "One more for the road"
Lido be runnin', Havin' great big fun 'til he got the note Sayin' "toe the line or blow it" And that was all she wrote He be makin' like a beeline, Headin' for the borderline, goin' for broke Sayin, "one more hit oughta do it" "This joint, ain't nothin' to it" "One more for the road"
Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh.... He's for the money, he's for the show Lido's a-waitin' for another go Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh.... "one more job oughta get it" "One last shot, and we quit it" "One more for the road"
[Instrumental Interlude]
Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh.... He's for the money, he's for the show Lido's a-waitin' for another go Lido, whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh....
