(Boyce / Hart/ Farrell )
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 that 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 Joscute;, 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
La la-la-la la-la
Ho ho la-la
La la la-la
