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.
