    Story Behind the Song
    My long-legged lady friends needed something to dance to. So, I cooked up this tune. My friends are aluring and stiring, but they're my Friends. (Kinda like sisters.) Ergo the title. Written at the CSUB pub. You're hearing the 1st of two takes w/no more than three passes at any one spot.

    JAM on.................Mac.

    Lyrics
    Umm, umm umm...

    Legs, oh, legs
    'bout a mile from head to toe,
    finely chisled elegance
    in ev'ry inch you show.
    My fever's risin'
    I'm 'bout to blow my cool.
    Where'd you learn to dance that way?
    [They] don't teach those moves in school.
    SISTER LONG LEGS!
    Your strut is almost cruel.
    Your walk is stoppin' traffic;
    puts whiplash on my neck.
    SISTER LONG LEGS
    I'm a nervous wreck. (Sister Long Legs...)

    Thighs, umm, thighs
    I think I'm turnin' pale.
    If that hem goes any higher,
    hope the boys will post my bail.
    My hands are tremblin'
    my pounding pulse won't still.
    When will someone warn you?
    "Legs like those could kill."
    SISTER LONG LEGS
    A walkin'-talkin' thrill
    Don't walk those legs too close to me
    I might up and die
    SISTER LONG LEGS
    could make a grown man cry.

    [Tenor sax lead to turnaround.]

    Arizonza party girls
    have always been the best
    SISTER LONG LEGS
    give that dress a rest.

    [Vamp]

    Soul Burnin' (Sister Long Legs)
    Got me churnin' (Sister Long Legs)
    Head Turnin' " " "
    Keeps me yearnin' " " "

    [ad lib. to Fin]
