Need A Woman lyrics

by Bob Dylan

It`s been raining in the trenches all day long, dripping down to my clothes,
My patience is wearing thin, got a fire inside my nose.
Searching for the truth the way God designed it,
The truth is I might drown before I find it.

Well I need a woman, yes I do
Need a woman, yes I do.
Someone who can see me as I am,
Somebody who just don`t give a damn.
And I want you to be that woman every night,
Be that woman.

I`ve had my eyes on you baby for about five long years,
You probably don`t know me at all, but I have seen your laughter and tears.
Now you don`t frighten me, my heart is jumping
And you look like it wouldn`t hurt you none to have a man who could give ya something.

Well I need a woman, oh don`t I
Need a woman, bring it home safe at last.
Seen you turn the corner, seen your bootheels spark,
Seen you in the daylight, and watched you in the dark.
And I want you to be that woman, all right
Be that woman every night.

Well, if you believe in something long enough you just naturally come to think it`s true.
There ain`t no wall you can`t cross over, ain`t no fire you can`t walk through.
Well, believing is all right, just don`t let the wrong people know what it`s all about.
They might put the evil eye on you, use their hidden powers to try to turn you out.

Well I need a woman, just to be my queen.
Need a woman, know what I mean?
