Roberta Flack

Songwriter: Bob Dylan

Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand inside the rain
Everybody knows
Baby's got new clothes
Lately I've shown my ribbons and my bows
And my problems, from my curls
And I take just like a woman
And I make love just like a woman
And I ache just like a woman
I break up like a little girl

The Queen Mary is my friend
I believe I'll go and see her again
Ain't nobody has to guess
That Baby won't be blessed
Till she finds out she's just like all the rest
With her problems, her amphetamines and her pearls
She takes just like a woman
She makes love like a woman
And she aches just like a woman
She breaks up like a little girl

Oh It was raining there first
And I was dying of thirst
So I came in here
And a long-time trust it hurts
But what's worse
Is this pain in here
I can't stay in here
Ain't it clear

Oh, I must admit
I believe it's time for us to quit
When we meet again
And we're introduced as friends
Please don't let on that you knew me when
I was hungry for you, and it was your world
I take just like a woman
And I make love just like a woman
And I ache just like a woman
And I break up like a little girl
