Richie Havens
Just Like A Woman (Dylan 30th Anniversary)
[Verse]
Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Everybody knows that baby’s got new clothes
Lately I see her ribbons and her bows
And the problems as they fall from her curls
[Chorus]
She takes just like a woman
And she makes love just like a woman
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl
[Verse 2]
Queen Mary, she’s my friend
I believe I’ll go see her again
Nobody's got to guess that baby can’t be blessed
'Til she finds out that she’s like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines, and her pearls
[Chorus]
She takes just like a woman
And she makes love just like a woman
And she aches just like a woman
But she breaks just like a little girl
[Bridge]
It was raining from the first
And I was dying there of thirst
So I came in here
And your long-time curse hurts
But what’s worse, Lord
Is this pain in here
I can’t stay in here
Ain’t it clear
That I, oh I can't fit?
I believe it’s time for us to quit
And when we meet again, introduced as friends
Please don’t let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world
[Chorus]
Ah, you fake just like a woman
And you make love just like a woman
Then you ache just like a woman
But you break just like a little girl
You break just like a little girl
You break just like
