The Hollies - Long Cool Woman | Lyrics:
[Intro]
Saturday night I was downtown
Working for the FBI
Sittin' 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 sing 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
[Instrumental Interlude]
I saw her heading to the table
Like 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
A-jumping out of doors and tables
When I heard somebody shootin' a gun
Well the DA was pumping my left hand
And a-she was a-holding my right
Well I told her don't get scared
'Cause you're gonna be spared
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
Yeah, with just one look I was a bad mess
Cause that long cool woman had it all
Had it all
Had it all

This song is as groovy today as it was 50 years ago

@kristyswanson4566 3 месяца назад

You said ,"groovy" 😂( that's classic.) This definitely was a popular song/ group in your day and age. Look at the words we have day..."tight," that's the shit" and ",dope" just to list a few. I'd pick groovy over all of them any day hands down 💯 %😊

Tried to play this song every time my wife wore her black dress. God I miss her. Lost her to cancer just over three years sgo after of being together just under 45 years. Love the old songs.

Love,love,love the old songs...Hate,hate hate the cancer... cherish the memories you made with her for sure.. play this song loud and proud any chance you get. Cancer already took one life. Don't let it allow yours too or get lost in the pain. (This song reminds me of my dad, and I miss him terribly_ he was apart of my life every day for 3 decades as well, not that I'm comparing that relationship to the one you had with your true love, but I can definitely relate.. God bless you both...❤😢

Try to just remember the good you had with your Long Cool Woman Wife. Almost 45 years together. Had to be abundantly more good things than bad. - I'll be with my second wife 36 years this August. When she was young (23 when I married her), she looked so good in that black dress...

@stevejorgensen5274 3 месяца назад

@@grtlover mine was 18 when we married. She was still in high school. Married four years before kids. I graduated high school at 17. Joined the army and went to the 101st. I did not know her age until the fourth date. At that time I was just 19 and she was only a couple months from being 17. Three kids later we were planning on what we were going to do at retirement. Guess those plans are gone.

A guitar player, I've been trying to figure out the intro to this for 35 years. I've almost got it, but I think that the guitar player had an idea of what he wanted to play, but played it by accident. I don't think that he, or anyone else could ever recreate it.
