Just Like a Woman (Live at Nippon Budokan Hall, Tokyo, Japan - February 28, 1978) Lyrics

Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Everybody knows 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) just like a woman
And she aches (just like a woman) just like a woman
And she makes love (just like a woman) 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
'Til she sees finally that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls

She takes (just like a woman) just like a woman
And she aches (just like a woman) just like a woman
She even makes love (just like a woman) 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 don't fit
Yes, I believe it's time for us to quit
But 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

That you fake (just like a woman) just like a woman
And you take (just like a woman) just like a woman
And you make love (just like a woman) just like a woman
But you break just like a little girl
