The Hollies – Long Cool Woman (in A Black Dress) Lyrics  Share

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sittin^, in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles piling high

Bootlegging boozer on the west side
Full of people who are doing wrong
Just about to call up the DA 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
With just one look I was a bad mess
^,Cause that long cool woman had it all

[Instrumental Interlude]

I saw her heading to the table
Like a tall walking big black cat

When Charlie said I hope that you^,re able boy
^,Cause I^,m telling you she knows where it^,s at
Then suddenly we heard the sirens
And everybody started to run
A-jumping out of doors and tables
When I heard somebody shootin^, a gun
Well the DA was pumping my left hand

And a-she was a-holding my right
Well I told her don^,t get scared
^,Cause you^,re gonna be spared
I^,ve gotta be forgivin^, if I wanna spend my living
With a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5^,9 beautiful tall
Yeah, with just one look I was a bad mess
^,Cause that long cool woman had it all
Had it all
Had it all
