Lyrics:

Saturday night I was down town
working for the F.B.I.
sitting in a nest of bad men
iskey bottles piling high
boot legging 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 singing a song.

A pair of forty fives made me open 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
cos that long cool woman had it all.

Saw her heading to the table
well a tall walking big black cat
when Charlie said I hope that youre able
boy
well
Im telling you she knows where its at
well suddenly we heard a siren
and evrybody started to run
a jumping out of doors and tables
well I heard somebody shooting a gun.

Well the D.A. was pumping my left hand
and a she a holding my right
and I told her dont get scared
cos youre gonna be spared
and I gotta be popular now
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
cos that long cool woman had it all
had it all
had it all
had it all.
