Lyrics:
Long Tall Sally she is real sweet
She holds herself up like a millionaire
Long Tall Sally with the whiskey beat
She makes the people all stop and stare
Long Tall Sally on her motorbike
She gonna take that long ride downtown
Long Tall Sally with her Whiskey Priest
You know she’s gonna bring the hammer down
CHORUS
Wind her up yeah watch her go
Wind her up yeah watch her go
Watch her go yeah
Wind her up and watch her go
Long Tall Sally with her whiskey stare
She don’t care about no gallows creak
Long Tall Sally and The Whiskey Priest
You know they’re all about the winning streak
Long Tall Sally, when the gunfire starts
She just throws the money at the moon
Long Tall Sally walks a whiskey beat
And she don’t care that she will die too soon
CHORUS X2
Wind her up yeah watch her go
Wind her up yeah watch her go
Watch her go yeah
Wind her up and watch her go

Critics say:
“A supercharged mix of post-punk spirit channeled through garage-rock ambition. Wicked, brash and hellishly catchy.” -Lonely Vagabond
“Musically, the band sounds like a mish-mash of The Birthday Party’s tribal rhythms, The Cramps’ sleaziness and Iggy Pop’s naked aggression…boasts fat, vibrant guitars and drums that are occasionally gut-punching and bowel-reverberating.”-Chart Attack
