  1. One for the road, ooh-ooh

  2. One for the road, ooh-ooh

  3. From the bottom of your heart, the relegation zone

  4. I saw this coming from the start

  5. The shake, rattle and roll

  6. All the cracks in blackout blinds cast patterns on the ceiling

  7. But you're feeling fine

  8. I thought it was dark outside

  9. I thought it was dark outside

  10. (One for the road)

  11. So we all get back to yours and you sit and talk to me on the floor

  12. There's no need to show me 'round, baby

  13. I feel like I've been here before

  14. I've been wonderin' whether later, when you tell everybody to go

  15. Will you pour me one for the road?

  16. I knew this would be on the cards

  17. I knew you wouldn't fold

  18. I saw this comin' from the start

  19. The shake, rattle and roll

  20. (One for the road)

  21. So we all get back to yours and you sit and talk to me on the floor

  22. There's no need to show me 'round, baby

  23. I feel like I've been here before

  24. I've been wonderin' whether later, when you tell everybody to go

  25. Will you pour me one for the road?

  26. The mixture hits you hard

  27. Don't get that sinking feeling, don't fall apart

  28. Some out of tune guitar

  29. Soundtrack to disaster

  30. Ooh-ooh, one for the road

  31. Ooh-ooh, one for the road

  32. Ooh-ooh, one for the road

  33. Ooh-ooh, one for the road

  34. Ooh-ooh

  35. Ooh-ooh

  36. Ooh-ooh

  37. Ooh-ooh

  38. (One for the road)

  39. So we all get back to yours and you sit and talk to me on the floor

  40. There's no need to show me 'round, baby

  41. I feel like I've been here before

  42. I've been wonderin' whether later, when you tell everybody to go

  43. Will you pour me one for the road?

One For The Road

One for the road, ooh-ooh

One for the road, ooh-ooh

From the bottom of your heart, the relegation zone

I saw this coming from the start

The shake, rattle and roll

All the cracks in blackout blinds cast patterns on the ceiling

But you're feeling fine

I thought it was dark outside

I thought it was dark outside

(One for the road)

So we all get back to yours and you sit and talk to me on the floor

There's no need to show me 'round, baby

I feel like I've been here before

I've been wonderin' whether later, when you tell everybody to go

Will you pour me one for the road?

I knew this would be on the cards

I knew you wouldn't fold

I saw this comin' from the start

The shake, rattle and roll

(One for the road)

So we all get back to yours and you sit and talk to me on the floor

There's no need to show me 'round, baby

I feel like I've been here before

I've been wonderin' whether later, when you tell everybody to go

Will you pour me one for the road?

The mixture hits you hard

Don't get that sinking feeling, don't fall apart

Some out of tune guitar

Soundtrack to disaster

Ooh-ooh, one for the road

Ooh-ooh, one for the road

Ooh-ooh, one for the road

Ooh-ooh, one for the road

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

Ooh-ooh

(One for the road)

So we all get back to yours and you sit and talk to me on the floor

There's no need to show me 'round, baby

I feel like I've been here before

I've been wonderin' whether later, when you tell everybody to go

Will you pour me one for the road?
