Long Cool Woman (In a Black Dress)

Saturday night I was down town Working for the F.B.I. Sitting in a nest of bad men Whiskey bottles piling high Boot legging boozer on the west side Full of people who are doing wrong Just about to call up the D.A. man When I heard this woman singing a song A pair of forty fives made me open my eyes My temperature started to rise She was a long cool woman in a black dress Just a five nine 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 Well, a tall walking big black cat When Charlie said "I hope that you're able, boy" I'm telling you she knows where it's at Well, suddenly we heard a siren And everybody started to run A jumping out of doors and tables Well, I heard somebody shooting a gun The D.A. was pumping my left hand And she was holding my right I told her don't get scared Cause you're gonna be spared I gotta be forgiven If I want to spend my living with A long cool woman in a black dress Just a five nine beautiful tall With just one look I was a bad mess 'Cause that long cool woman had it all Had it all Had it all Had it all Had it all Had it all
