Come a Little Bit Closer
In a little cafe just the other side of the border
Mmmmm she was sitting there giving me looks
that made my mouth water
so I started walking her way
but she belonged to that bad man Jose
and I knew yes I knew I should leave
but I heard her say
come a little bit closer your my kind of man
so big and so strong
come a little bit closer I'm all alone
and the night is so long
hmmmmm
so we started to dance
in my arms she felt so inviting
mmm I just couldn't resist
that just one little kiss so exciting
then I heard the guitar player say
va-moose
Jose's on his way
and I knew yes I knew I should run
but the I heard her say-ay-ay
come a little bit closer
your my kind of man
so big and so strong
come a littke bit closer
I'm all alone
and the night is so long
ha ha ha alright
laaa laaa la la laaa laaa la la
laaa laaa la la laaa laaa la la
then the music stopped
when I looked
the cafe was empty
then I heard Jose say
man you know your in trouble plenty
so I dropped my drink from my hand
and out the window I ran
and as I rode away
I could hear her say to Jose
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
come a little bit closer
your're my kind of man
so big and so strong
and I'm all alone
and the night is so long
laaa laaa la la... laaa laaa la la
laaa laaa la la
Mmmmm she was sitting there giving me looks

so big and so strong
come a little bit closer I'm all alone
