Saturday night

I was downtown
Working for the FBI

sitting in a nest
of had men
Bootlegging hoozer
on the west side

full of people
who are doing wrong
Just about to call up
the DA man

when I heard
this woman
singing a so-o-oooong
A pair of forty-fives
made me open my eyes

my temperature
started to ri ....... se
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 3....
Instrumental
21 seconds
I saw her headin'
to the table

well a tall walking
big black cat
When Charlie said
I hope that

you're able boy
well I'm telling you
she knows where it's at
Well suddenly
we heard the sirens

and everybody
started to run
A jumping out of
doors and on tables

well I heard somebody
shooting a gu-u-uuun
Well the DA was
pumping my left hand

and she was
a-holding my right
Well I'm gonna be forgiven
if I wanna spend
my living with a long
cool woman
in a black dress
Well with just one look
I was a bad mess

'cos that long cool
woman had it 3....
