to the tune of "Long Cool Woman" by The Hollies
I saw him when I was in town
A-pickin' up my supplies
Sittin' at a corner table
Whiskey bottles pilin' high
I saw him down another whiskey
To just stare at him would be unwise
Just about to go and talk to him
When he looked at me with his steel eyes
A pair of .45's made me widen my eyes
My temperature started to rise
He was a-Chris Larabee in a black coat
Just a 6-foot, gorgeous, and tall
With just one look I was on the floor
'Cause that Chris Larabee had it all
I saw him heading to the counter
Like a tall walking big black cat
When Inez said, "I hope that he's not angry!"
But I'm tellin' you, he knows where it's at
Then suddenly we heard the gunshots
And everybody started to run
Tryin' to hide behind the tables
When I saw somebody drawing their gun
I saw someone aiming a gun at me
And a-he threw me down on the floor
Well, he told me "Don't get scared,
'Cause you're gonna be spared."
I've gotta keep my cool or I just may start to drool over-a
Chris Larabee in a black coat
Just a 6-foot, gorgeous, and tall
With just one look I was on the floor
'Cause that Chris Larabee had it all.
Had it all!
