"Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress)"

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sittin′ in a nest of bad men
Whiskey 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 sing 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
'Cause that long cool woman had it all


I saw her heading to the table
Like a tall walking big black cat
When Charlie said I hope that you're able boy
′Cause I′m telling you she knows where it's at
Then suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
A-jumping out of doors and tables
When I heard somebody shootin′ a gun
Well the DA was pumping my left hand

And a-she was a-holding my right
Well I told her don't get scared
′Cause you're gonna be spared
I′ve gotta be forgivin' if I wanna spend my living
With a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5'9 beautiful tall
Yeah, with just one look I was a bad mess
′Cause that long cool woman had it all
Had it all
Had it all
