Long Cool Woman In a Black Dress Written by Allan Clarke, Roger Cook & Roger Greenaway #2 song from 1972 Lead Guitar and vocals - Allan Clarke Saturday night I was downtown Working for the FBI Sitting 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 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 I saw her heading 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 then suddenly we heard the sirens And everybody started to run Jumping under doors and tables Well I heard somebody shooting a gun Well the DA was pumping my left hand and she was holding my right Well I told her, "Don't get scared 'Cos you're gonna be spared" Well I'm gonna 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
I do not wear hose with open toed shoes, however, although I see older women doing that, its not a look I think is flattering
