Just Like A Woman lyrics - Charlotte Gainsbourg

(originally by Bob Dylan)

Nobody feels any pain 

Tonight as I stand inside the rain 

Ev'rybody knows 

That Baby's got new clothes 

But lately I see her ribbons and her bows 

Have fallen from her curls. 

She takes just like a woman, yes, she does 

She makes love just like a woman, yes, she does 

And she aches just like a woman 

But she breaks just like a little girl. 

Queen Mary, she's my friend 

Yes, I believe I'll go see her again 

Nobody has to guess 

That Baby can't be blessed 

Till she sees finally that she's like all the rest 

With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls. 

She takes just like a woman, yes, she does 

She makes love just like a woman, yes, she does 

And she aches just like a woman 

But she breaks just like a little girl. 

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 

Is this pain in here 

I can't stay in here 

Ain't it clear that-- 

I just can't fit 

Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit 

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. 

Ah, you fake just like a woman, yes, you do 

You make love just like a woman, yes, you do 

Then you ache just like a woman 

But you break just like a little girl.
