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 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.
It's 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 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.
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 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.
It's 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 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.

Dylan is the voice of my generation. He may not be the prettiest singer, but the sound of his voice brings back great memories. I'm often asked by my younger friends what it felt like "back in the day" I tell them to listen to Blinde on Blonde and they will "feel" it.We all like different things-it keeps the world of music interesting. |

| joelbb | Posted: Sep 06, 2012 - 10:47 What I'm talkin' about. Sorry you don't like him, Bill. Nobody but nobody before or after has written lyrics the quality of saying the food on "Maggie's Farm" was "brown rice, seaweed and a dirty hot dog", or the sheriff in "Tombstone Blues" who "set a fire on Main Street and shot it full of holes" or that Einstein was "famous long ago for playing electric violin on Desolation Row." These days, not so much. Just play the recordings up to and including this one and it will all be good. And listen to the words. |

| That_SOB (In at least 2 places at once) | Posted: Jun 03, 2012 - 17:07 Congrats Mr. Dylan, the " Medal of Freedom" looked so well deserved around your neck ... ! You deserve to be in the company of the most creative people on earth. To be in the room with the guy who stopped small-pox is one thing, but to receive the same award is enormous ! There are so many of us that were there when you lent your voice to sanity and freedom, we can never repay you Bob, but know that in all our souls is a deep appreciation we will carry to the end of our days.. |

Agree this was a great set leading up to the man himself. Fantastic! Thanks. |

The only concert I've ever been to where the headliner was booed long after he left the stage. Boooo booo, take this, Dylan:  Yea, I could see that. Probably the only guy that gives lame concerts, sings like shit and is still absolutely the most important songwriter of the 20th century. I think he was just great even though he sucks, pretty cool huh? |

| jim1964 (british columbia, but use to ride the IRT to work) | Posted: Jul 08, 2010 - 21:05 I remember this was the last album before Bob went into seclusion and there were rumours that he died or was injured in a motorcycle accident upstate. I was a freshman in high school at the time and a big Dylan fan. |

| Proton_Soup | Posted: Dec 31, 2009 - 01:43 wow, this was just excruciating for me, like fingernails on a chalkboard. i wish i could appreciate Dylan, as i hear so much about him being a "genius", but i can never get past the physical pain. i guess it's something (poetry perhaps?), based on all the praise, but you can't really call it music. |
