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 finally sees that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls.
She takes just like a woman, yes
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 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.
Bob Dylan - Just Like A Woman (04:15)
Just Like A Woman LIve 1966
Gordon Lightfoot's version is unmistakedly the best version.
Theres a pathos in the song that
Dylan fails to capture perhaps he captures a drunken man falling in circles but the song is about more than that. I am
Bob Dylan fanatic all the same.

Did anyone hear Liam Clancy's version? I heard it on his (only) podcast. That's where I heard it for the first time. It's really great.

Elvis made his like Dylans.
Dylan did this before Elvis but Elvis's is more like Dylans than Gordon Lightfoot.
Elvis and Dylan admired each other.
I'm not a Dylan fan but I see why people like his music it's good no doubt. Only a while back live Dylan did Heartbreak Hotel.

I always liked Bob's version of this song. Self Portrait has some brilliant tracks.
