Letra da Música

(Clarke / Cook / Greenaway)
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
