Long Cool Woman

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the fbi
Sitting in a nest of bad men
Whisky bottles piling high

Bootlegging boozer on the west side
Full of people who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the da man
When I heard this woman singing a song

A pair of 45?s made me open my eyes
My temperature started to rise
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5?9, beautiful tall
With just one look I was a bad mess
?cos that long cool woman had it all

I saw her headin? to the table
Well a tall walking big black cat
When charlie said I hope that you?re able boy
Well I?m telling you she knows where it?s at
Well suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
A jumping out of doors and tables
Well I heard somebody shooting a gun

Well the da was pumping my left hand
And then she was a-holding my right
Well I told her don?t get scared
?cos you?re gonna be spared
Well I?ve gotta be forgiven
If I wanna spend my living
With a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5?9 beautiful tall
Well, with just one look I was a bad mess
?cos that long cool woman had it all

Had it all
