Lyrics Come a Little Bit Closer - Johnny Duncan , Janie Fricke

Johnny Duncan & Janie Frickie

In a little cafe just the other side of the border
Mmmmm, she was a-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 heard her say.

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.

Hmmmm.

So we started to dance, in my arms she felt so inviting
Mmmmmm, I just couldn't resist, a-just a-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 then I heard her say.

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.

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 you're in trouble plenty
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 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, 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.

Laaa-laaa, la-la, laaa-laaa, la-la
Laaa-laaa, la-la, laaa-laaa, la-la...
