[Verse]


Saturday night

 I was downtow

n
             
Working for th

   
e FBI

Sitting in a n

est of bad men
             
Whisky bottles

          
 piling high


Bootlegging bo

ozer on the we

st side
             
Full of people

             
 who are doing

    
 wrong

Just about to 

call up the D.

A. man
             
When I heard t

              
his woman sing

    
ing a song


[Chorus]


A pair of 45's

 made me open 

my eyes

My temperature

 started to ri

se
              
She was a long

 
 cool woman in

 a black dress
             
Just a 5'9, be

        
autiful tall

With just one 

look I was a b

ad mess
             
'cos that long

              
 cool woman ha
