[Verse]
E
Saturday night I was downtown

G             A   E
Working for the FBI

E
Sitting in a nest of bad men

G                 A      E
Whisky bottles piling high

E
Bootlegging boozer on the west side

           G              A     E
Full of people who are doing wrong

E
Just about to call up the D.A. man

        G                   A    E
When I heard this woman singing a song
[Chorus]
A
A pair of 45's made me open my eyes

B
My temperature started to rise

               A
She was a long cool woman in a black dress

       G                  E
Just a 5'9, beautiful 'n' tall

A
With just one look I was a bad mess

         G                         E
'cos that long cool woman had it all
8 bars [Verse]
E
I saw her headin' to the table

             G            A  E
Well a tall walking big black cat

E
When charlie said I hope that you're able boy

             G             A        E
Well I'm telling you she knows where it's at

E
Well suddenly we heard the sirens

      G            A      E
And everybody started to run

E
A jumping out of doors and tables

       G                A       E
Well I heard somebody shooting a gun

E
Well the da was pumping my left hand

          G         A     E
And then she was a-holding my right

E
Well I told her don't get scared

G
'cos you're gonna be spared

A
Well I've gotta be forgiven
If I wanna spend my living With a long cool woman in a black dress
       G                 E
Just a 5'9 beautiful 'n' tall

           A
Well, with just one look I was a bad mess

G                     A          E
'cos that long cool woman had it all

       E
Had it all
