in A Little Café Just The Other Side Of The Border
she Was Just Sitting There Givin' Me Looks That Made My Mouth Water
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

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

so We Started To Dance
in My Arms, She Felt So Inviting
that I Just Couldn't Resist
just One Little Kiss So Exciting
then I Heard The Guitar Player Say
'vamoose, José's On His Way'
then I Knew, Yes I Knew I Should Run
but Then I Heard Her Say, Yeah

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

------ Instrumental Break ------

then The Music Stopped
when I Looked The Café Was Empty
then I Heard José Say
'man You Know You're In Trouble Plenty'
so I Dropped My Drink From My Hand
and Through The Window I Ran
and As I Rode Away
i Could Hear Her Say To José, Yeah

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

la La-La-La La-La
