Lido missed the boat that day he left the shack
But that was all he missed and he ain't comin' back

At a tombstone bar in a jukejoint 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 it roll
He said, "One more job oughta get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it
One for the road"

[chorus:]
Lido, whoa oh oh oh
He's for the money
He's for the show
Lido's a waitin' for the go
Lido, whoa oh oh oh-----
(He said,) "One more job oughta get it
One last shot 'fore we quit it
One more for the road"

Lido be runnin' havin' great big fun
Until he got the note
Sayin', "Tow 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"
