Friday 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 Boss 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 short sweet woman in a red dress Just-a 5'2, beautiful, tall With just one look I was a hot mess 'Cause that short sweet woman had it all I saw her heading to the table Like a tall walking big black cat When Boss man 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 shooting 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 short sweet woman in a red dress Just a 5'2 beautiful tall Yeah, with just one look I was a hot mess 'Cause that short sweet woman had it all Had it all Had it all
