[Verse 1]
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
[Chorus]
She takes just like a woman
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
Oh, I believe that I'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can't be blessed
'Til she finds out she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines and her pearls
[Chorus]
She aches just like a woman, yes she does
She takes just like a woman, yes she does
She makes love just like a woman, yes she does
But she breaks just like a little girl
[Verse 3]
It was raining from the first
And I was dying there of thirst
So I came in here
And your long-time curse a' hurts
But you know honey what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't it clear
Oh I just don't fit
I believe that it's time for us to quit
When we meet again
And introduced as friends
Please don't let on
That you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world
[Chorus]
You fake just like a woman, yes she does
And make love just like a woman, yes she does
Then you ache just like a woman, yes she does
But you break just, just like a little girl, break like a girl
[Outro]
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh, ooh
Just like a woman, woman, woman
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
[Chorus]
She takes just like a woman
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
Oh, I believe that I'll go see her again
Nobody has to guess
That baby can't be blessed
'Til she finds out she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamines and her pearls
[Chorus]
She aches just like a woman, yes she does
She takes just like a woman, yes she does
She makes love just like a woman, yes she does
But she breaks just like a little girl
[Verse 3]
It was raining from the first
And I was dying there of thirst
So I came in here
And your long-time curse a' hurts
But you know honey what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't it clear
Oh I just don't fit
I believe that it's time for us to quit
When we meet again
And introduced as friends
Please don't let on
That you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world
[Chorus]
You fake just like a woman, yes she does
And make love just like a woman, yes she does
Then you ache just like a woman, yes she does
But you break just, just like a little girl, break like a girl
[Outro]
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh, ooh
Just like a woman, woman, woman
