In a little cafe on the other side of the border
C C C *
She was sitting there giving me looks that made my mouth water
F * * *
So I started walking her way, she be-longed to Bad Man Jose
G * C F G
And I knew, yes I knew, I should leave, then I heard her say - ay - ay
CHORUS:
G C F G F
.. Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man, so big and so
strong
C F G C F
G F
Come a little bit closer, I'm all a-lone, and the night is so
long__________

So we started to dance, in my arms she felt so in-viting
C F C *
And I just couldn't resist, a-just a-one little kiss so ex-citing
F * * *
Then I heard the guitar player say: Va-moose , Jose's on his way
G * C F
G
And I knew , yes I knew, I should run, but then I heard her say - ay -
ay
C F C *
Then the music stopped, when I looked, the cafe was empty
C F C *
And I heard Jose say: Man, you know you're in trouble plenty
F * * *
So I dropped the drink from my hand, and out through the window I ran
G * C F G
And as I rode a-way, I could hear her say to Jos - e - yay - yay

When she told me I was average, she was just being mean.
