and single release february 1972
{Creedence-like guitar intro}
{Allan Clarke sings without any backing vocals:}
Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sitting in a nest of bad men
Whisky 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 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
'Cos that long cool woman had it all.
{guitar interlude}
Whoa
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 tables
Well I heard somebody shooting a gun.
Well the DA was pumping my left hand
And then she was a-holding my right
Well I told her don't get scared
'Cos you're gonna be spared
Well I've gotta be forgiven
if I wanna spend my living
with a long cool woman in a black dress
Just a 5'9 beautiful tall.
Well, with just one look I was a bad mess
'Cos that long cool woman had it all.
Had it all
Had it all
Had it all
Had it all
Had it all
Oooh
Had it all
