Long Cool Woman (In a Black Dress)
The Hollies

Saturday night I was downtown, workin' for the F.B.I...
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 D.A. 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
Cos that long cool woman had it all

[Interlude]

I saw her heading to the table, like a tall walking big black cat
Charlie said I hope you're able boy, 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 'cos 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
With just one look I was a bad mess
Cos that long cool woman had it all

Had it all
Had it all
Had it all
Had it all
