LONG COOL WOMAN IN A BLACK DRESS (C#)

Saturday night I was downtown, workin' for the FBI

Sittin' in a nest of bad men,

Whiskey bottles pilin' high.


A bootleggin' boozer on the west side,

Full o' people who were doin' wrong

A just about to call the DA-man,

When I heard this woman singin' a song...


A pair o' 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,

Cause that long cool woman had it all.

INI


Well suddenly we heard the sirens,

And everybody started to run

Jumpin' outta doors and tables,

Well I heard someone shootin' a gun.


I said don't be scared, y'gonna be spared,

Well I gotta be forgivin'

If I wanna spend my livin' with a long cool woman in a black dress ...

CHORUS
