E
Saturday night I was downtown
G A E
Working for the FBI
E
Sitting in a nest of bad men
G A E
Whiskey bottles piling high
E
Bootlegging boozer on the west side
G A E
Full of people who are doing wrong
E
Just about to call up the DA man
G A E
When I heard this woman singing a song

A
A pair of 45′s made me open my eyes
B
My temperature started to rise
A
She was a long cool woman in a black dress
G G E
Just a 5-9 beautiful tall
A
With just one look I was a bad mess
G G E
‘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
Well I’m telling you she knows where it’s at
Well then suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
Jumping under doors and tables
Well I heard somebody shooting a gun

E
Well the DA was pumping my left hand
G A E
And she was holding my right
E
Well I told her, “Don’t get scared
G
‘Cause you’re gonna be spared”
A
Well I’m gonna be forgiven
If I wanna spend my living
With a long cool woman in a black dress
G G E
Just a 5-9 beautiful tall
E
With just one look I was a bad mess
G G E
‘Cause that long cool woman had it all
E
Had it all, had it all, had it all…
