Clint Black Long Cool Woman (In A Black Dress) lyrics

Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sitting in a nest of bad men
Whiskey bottles piled up high

Bootlegging boozer's 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 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

I saw her head up to the table
With 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
Jumping under doors and tables
And I heard somebody shooting the gun

Well, the DA was pumping my left hand
And then she was holding my right
Well, I told her, "Don't be scared
'Cause you're gonna be spared"

Well, I'm gotta be forgiven
If I wanna spend my living

With a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5-9 beautiful and tall
With 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
She had it all, had it all, had it all
