Johnny Duncan - Come a Little Bit Closer lyrics

rate me

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...
