Saturday night I was downtown
Workin' for the FBI
Sittin' in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles pilin' high
Bootleggin' boozer on the west side
Full of people who are doin' 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
Well just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that Long Cool Woman had it all
WHOA!
I saw her headin' to the table
Well a tall walkin' big black cat
When Charlie said, "I hope that you're able, boy"
"Well I'm tellin' ya she knows where it's at"
Well suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
A-jumpin' under doors and tables
Well I heard somebody shootin' a gun
Well the D.A. was pumpin' my left hand
And she was a-hold of my right
Well I told her, "Don't get scared, 'cause you're gonna be spared"
Well I've gotta be forgivin' if I wanna spend my livin'
With a Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress
Just a 5-9 beautiful tall
Well just one look I was a bad mess
'Cause that Long Cool Woman had it all
Had it all
Had it all
HAD IT ALL!
HAD IT ALL!
HAD IT ALL!
Ooooh
HAD IT ALL!
Ahh, she had it all
