ESaturday night I was downtown
GWorking for Athe EFBI
ESitting in a nest of bad men
GWhisky bottles pilAing higEh
EBootlegging boozer on the west side
Full of peoGple who are doiAng wroEng
EJust about to call up the D.A. man
When I Gheard this woman singAing a Esong
AA pair of 45's made me open my eyes
HMy temperature started to rise
She was a long Acool woman in a black dress
Just a G5'9, beautiful 'n' Etall
AWith just one look I was a bad mess
'cos that Glong cool woman had it Eall
EI saw her headin' to the table
Well a tall Gwalking big Ablack Ecat
EWhen charlie said I hope that you're able boy
Well I'm tellGing you she Aknows where Eit's at
