Nina Simone

Just Like A Woman
I take just like a woman Yes I do And I make love just like a woman and I ache just like a woman but I break like a little girl Nobody here feels any pain tonight as I stand inside the rain And no one has to guess that baby's got new clothes Lately I see her ribbons and her bows and the problems from her curls [REFRAIN] I take just like a woman... It was raining from the first and I was dying her of thirst That's why I came here and a long time's curse Songtexteand what's worse is this pain in here I can't stay in here Ain't it clear Ain't it clear I must admit I believe it's time for me to quit And until we meet again bein' introduced as friends please don't let on that you knew me when I was hungry and it was your world [REFRAIN] I take just like a woman.... [Original lyrics] Nobody feels any pain Tonight as I stand here in the rain. Everybody 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. She makes love just like a woman. And then 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 amphetamines, and her pearls. She takes just like a woman. She makes love just like a woman. And then she aches just like a woman. But she breaks just like a little girl. [Break:] It raining at 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. I believe it's time for us to quit. But when we met again and are introduced as friends, Please don't let on that you knew me when I was hungry, and it was your world. You take just like a woman. You make love just like a woman. And then you ache just like a woman. But you break just like a little girl. Aus Songtexte Mania
