Letra de
Come A Little Bit Closer

A música foi inspirada por uma experiência que Bobby Hart teve em um restaurante mexicano na fronteira dos EUA. Enquanto observava um grupo de músicos serenatando uma mulher, sua imaginação criou uma narrativa envolvendo um triângulo amoroso perigoso. A canção ganhou popularidade por seu enredo cinematográfico.

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
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
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
Saxophone solo:
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 my drink from my hand, and from the window I ran
And as I rode a-way, I could hear her say to Jos - e - yay
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
La, la, la-la . . .
