Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress) - Lyrics by The Hollies


Lyrics
Saturday night I was down townworking for the F.B.I.sitting in a nest of bad meniskey bottles piling highboot legging boozer on the west sidefull of people who are doing wrongjust about to call up the D.A. manwhen I heard this woman singing a song.A pair of forty fives made me open my eyesmy temperature started to riseshe was a long cool woman in a black dressjust a five ninebeautifultallwith just one look I was a bad mess'cos that long cool woman had it all.
Saw her heading to the tablewell a tall walking big black catwhen Charlie said "I hope that you're ableboy"well
I'm telling you she knows where it's atwell suddenly we heard a sirenand ev'rybody started to runa jumping out of doors and tableswell I heard somebody shooting a gun.
Well the D.A. was pumping my left handand a she a holding my rightand I told her don't get scared'cos you're gonna be sparedand I gotta be popular nowif I wanna spend my living witha long cool woman in a black dressjust a five ninebeautifultallwith just one look I was a bad mess'cos that long cool woman had it allhad it allhad it allhad it all.
