Come a Little Bit Closer

(Tommy Boyce - Bobby Hart - Wes Farrell)



In a little cafe just the other side of the border

She was a sitting there giving me looks that made my mind bolder

So I started walking her way she belongs to bad man Jose

And I knew yes I knew I should leave 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.



So we started to dance

In my arms she felt so inviting

And I just couldn't resist the one

A little kiss so exciting.



Then I heard the guitar player say

Vamoose Jose's on his way

And I knew, yes, I knew I should leave

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.



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 through the window I ran

And as I rode away

I will never forget how she said.



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...
