Just Like a Woman — Bob Dylan

… Nobody feels any painTonight as I stand inside the rainEverybody knows that baby’s got new clothesBut lately I see her ribbons and her bowsHave fallen from her curls
… She takes just like a womanYes, she does, she makes love just like a womanYes, she does, and she aches just like a womanBut she breaks just like a little girl
… Queen Mary, she’s my friendYes, I believe I’ll go see her againNobody has to guess that baby can’t be blessed‘Til she finally sees that she’s like all the restWith her fog, her amphetamine, and her pearls
… She takes just like a womanYes, she makes love just like a womanYes, she does, and she aches just like a womanBut she breaks just like a little girl
… It was raining from the firstAnd I was dying there of thirstSo I came in hereAnd your long-time curse hurtsBut what’s worse is this pain in hereI can’t stay in here
… Ain’t it clear that I just can’t fitYes, I believe that it’s time for us to quitBut when we meet again, introduced as friendsPlease don’t let on that you knew me whenI was hungry and it was your world
… Ah, you fake just like a womanYes, you do, you make love just like a womanYes, you do, then you ache just like a womanBut you break just like a little girl
