Long Cool Woman

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the F.B.I.
Sitting in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles piling high

Bootleggin' boozer on the west side
Full of people who were doing it wrong
Just about to call up the D.A. man
When I heard this woman singin' a song

A pair of forty-fives completely opened 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 headed to the table
With a tall walkin' big black cat
Well Charlie said I hope that you're able boy
I'm telling you she knows where it's at

And suddenly we heard a siren
And everybody started to run
Jumping on the doors and the tables
Well I heard somebody shootin' a gun

Well the D.A. was pumpin' my left hand
And she was a'holdin' my right
Well I told her don't get scared
'Cause you're gonna be spared

Well I'm gonna be forgetting if I wanna 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... yeah

She had it all yeah had it all
Ooh baby

Yeah ow oh yeah

Yeah had it all
Wow ooh-hoo
She was tall had it all yeah
Oh she had wings baby
