                                                *
In a little cafe on 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 be-longed to Bad Man Jose
                                *                                
And I knew, yes I knew, I should leave, then I heard her say - ay - ay


CHORUS:

                                                              
.. Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man, so big and so
strong
                                                                
  
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
                                                                *
And I just couldn't resist, a-just a-one little kiss so ex-citing
                              *        *                     *
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 - ay -
ay


                                                          *
Then the music stopped, when I looked, the cafe was empty
                                                              *
And I heard Jose say: Man, you know you're in trouble plenty
                              *         *                        *
So I dropped the drink from my hand, and out through the window I ran
                                     *                    
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.
