Ry Cooder - I Need A Woman Lyrics
(bob dylan)Its been raining in my mouth all dayDripping down to my clothesMy patience it is wearing thinGot a fire inside my noseSearching for the truth the way God designed itThe truth is I might drown before I find itWell, I need a womanYes, I doNeed a womanYes, I doSomeone who can see me as I amGive the kind of love that dont have to be condemnedAnd I want you to be that womanEvery nightBe that womanTreat me rightIve had my eyes on you, babyFor about five long yearsYou probably dont know me at allBut Ive seen your laughter and Ive seen your tearsNow you dont frighten meI aint no defendantAnd you look like it wouldnt hurt you noneTo have a man of understandingWell, I need a womanOh, dont iNeed a womanBring it home safe at lastIve seen you standing on the cornerSeen you sitting down in the parkBeen watching you in the sunshineWalking with you in the darkAnd I want you to be that womanTreat me rightBe that womanEvery nightWell, if you believe in something long enoughYou just naturally come to think its trueThere aint no wall you cant crossoverAint no fire you cant walk throughWell, believing is all rightJust dont let the wrong people know what its all aboutThey might put the evil eye on youUse their hidden powers to try to turn you outWell, I need a womanJust to be my queenNeed a womanBlack, white, yellow, brown, blue or greenRiding out with me at midnightLike two spanish desperadoesGazing down upon the futile worldIn her cadillac eldoradoWe will penetrate the stormIn search of truth that has not been testedBut she better bring along her checkbookJust in case we get arrestedAnd I want you to be that woman
