Just Like a Woman Songtext
von Cat Power

Nobody feels any pain
Tonight as I stand in the rain
Everybody knows that baby′s got new clothes
But lately I've seen her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls

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

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 finally sees that she′s like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls


She takes just like a woman, yes
And 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 first
I was dying there of thirst, so I came in here
And your longtime 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 by friends
Please don′t let on that you knew me when
I was hungry and it was your world

You fake just like a woman, yes, you do
You make love just like a woman, yes, you do
You ache just like a woman
But you break just like a little girl
