Lyrics

[Verse 1]
In a little cafe
Just the other side of the border
She was just sitting there givin' me looks
That made my mouth water
[Verse 2]
So I started walking her way
She belonged to bad man José
And I knew, yes I knew I should leave
When I heard her say, yeah
[Verse 3]
"Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man
So big and so strong
Come a little bit closer
I'm all alone and the night is so long"
[Verse 4]
So we started to dance
In my arms, she felt so inviting
And I just couldn't resist
Just one little kiss, so exciting
[Verse 5]
Then I heard the guitar player say
"Vamos, José's on his way"
Then I knew, yes I knew I should run
But then I heard her say, yeah
[Verse 6]
"Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man
So big and so strong
Come a little bit closer
I'm all alone and the night is so long"
[Verse 7]
Then the music stopped
When I looked the cafe was empty
Then I heard José say
"Man, you know you're in trouble plenty"
[Verse 8]
So I dropped my drink from my hand
And out through the window I ran
And as I rode away
I could hear her say to José, yeah
[Verse 9]
"Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man
So big and so strong
Come a little bit closer
I'm all alone and the night is so long"
[Verse 10]
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (Come a little bit closer)
La-la-la-la-la-la-la (Come a little bit closer)
Oh-whoa-oh (Come a little bit closer)
I still hear her say (Come a little bit closer)
