"...come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man, so big and so strong."
It's an oldie. These are the only words of the song that I can remember. I love the song but can't think of the name or who sings it!! I think one of the character's name in the song is Jose (?) Can anybody help??

Come A Little Bit Closer - Jay & The Americans
Peak at # 3 for 2 weeks 11/21/64
Top 10 for 4 weeks
Top 40 for 11 weeks
In a little café just the other side of the border
She was just sitting there givin' me looks that made my mouth water
So I started walking her way
She belonged to bad man, José
And I knew, yes I knew I should leave
When I heard her say, yeah
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
That I just couldn't resist
Just one little kiss so exciting
Then I heard the guitar player say
"Vamoose, José's on his way"
Then I knew, yes I knew I should run
But then I heard her say, yeah
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 café was empty
Then I heard José 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 could hear her say to José, yeah
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
La la-la-la la-la
La la-la-la la-la
Ho ho la-la
La la la-la

The Ramones do it in a few songs Example: "Comin' down to New York just to see the Ramones" Leftover Crack "The Good, The Bad and The Leftover Crack" Lich King "Black Metal Sucks, I'd Rather Listen to Us" Crass "Well the Bands Called Crass, Not Clash" NoFX Theme From A NoFX album just talks about them and they have a song called I, Melvin etc Bad Brains "Yeah it's plain to see why we're banned in DC" Mother Love Bone "Those Mother Love Bone Boys Know What's Good For You, They're Like Soup" that's all I can think of right now..

I love that song, too! I can't think who sings it, but you can go to Yahoo Music and look up a song by title, artist or lyrics. It's driving me crazy now! I even called my sister and asked her who sang it and now we both have it stuck in our heads.
