INTRO: PLAY INSTRUMENTALLY CFCF/C
In a little cafe just the other side of the border

She was sitting there giving me looks

that made my mouth water.

So I started walking her way. She belonged to Bad Man Jose,
CG
And I knew, yes I knew, I should leave,
G7CFG
then I heard her say - ay - ay,
GCFG
'Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man,
so big and so strong,
G7CFG
Come a little bit closer, I'm all alone,
G7CCFGFCFGF
and the night is so long.'
CFCF/C
So we started to dance, in my arms she felt so inviting
CFCF/C
And I just couldn't resist, a-just a-one little kiss so exciting.
CF
Then I heard the guitar player say:
'Va-mos! ,Jose's on his way!'
CG
And I knew , yes I knew, I should run,
G7CFG
but then I heard her say - ay -ay,
GCFG
'Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man,
so big and so strong.
G7CFG
Come a little bit closer, I'm all a-lone,
G7CCFGF
and the night is so long.'

And I heard Jose say: 'Man, you know you're in trouble plenty!'

out through the window I ran,

And as I rode away, I could hear her say to José-yay-yay,
