(Bob Dylan)



It's been raining in my mouth all day

Dripping down to my clothes

My patience it 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

Give the kind of love that don't have to be condemned



And I want you to be that woman

Every night

Be that woman

Treat me right



I've had my eyes on you, baby

For about five long years

You probably don't know me at all

But I've seen your laughter and I've seen your tears

Now you don't frighten me

I ain't no defendant

And you look like it wouldn't hurt you none

To have a man of understanding



Well, I need a woman

Oh, don't I

Need a woman

Bring it home safe at last



I've seen you standing on the corner

Seen you sitting down in the park

Been watching you in the sunshine

Walking with you in the dark



And I want you to be that woman

Treat me 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 crossover

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

Black, white, yellow, brown, blue or green



Riding out with me at midnight

Like two Spanish desperadoes
