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"

Lido, oh, oh, oh
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's a waitin' for the go

Lido, 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"

Lido, oh, oh, oh
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's a waitin' for the go

Lido, oh, oh, oh
He said, "One more job oughta get it
One last shot and we quit it, one more for the road"

Lido, oh, oh, oh
He's for the money, he's for the show
Lido's a waitin' for the go

Lido, oh, oh, oh
