      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 💯 %😊

      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...

      @@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.

      The Lyrics were originally
      Saturday night I was downtown
      Late night FBI
      They were changed to
      Saturday night I was down town
      Working for the FBI
      But it was Sung
      Saturday night I was down town
      Working for my FBI
      It's MY FBI
      NOT the FBI
      Listen to it closely and you can hear him singing MY FBI

    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 D.A. man
    When I heard this woman singing a song
    A pair of forty fives 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 'n' tall
    Just one look I was a bad mess
    'Cause that long cool woman had it all
    I saw her heading to the table
    Well, a tall walking big black cat
    Charlie said, I hope that you're able, boy
    'Cause I'm telling you she knows where it's at
    Well, suddenly we hear the sirens
    And everybody started to run
    Jumping under doors and tables
    Well, I heard somebody shooting a gun
    Well, the D.A. was pumping my left hand
    She was 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 'n' tall
    Well with just one look I was a bad mess
    'Cause that long cool woman had it all
    Had it all, had it all, had it all
    Had it all, had it all, had it all (she had it all)

    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.
