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?
The lyrics NEED A WOMAN of BOB DYLAN is also present in the album The bootleg series volumes 1-3 (1991)
Bob Dylan, nato Robert Allen Zimmerman a Duluth (Minnesota) il 24 maggio 1941, è un cantautore, compositore, scrittore, poeta, pittore, attore e conduttore radiofonico statunitense. Considerato una delle figure più influenti degli ultimi cinquant'anni in musica, cultura popolare e letteratura, Dylan ha segnato profondamente la storia della musica americana. La sua carriera inizia negli anni '60, periodo in cui si afferma come figura chiave del movimento di protesta americano. Canzoni come *Blowin' in the Wind* e *The Times They Are A-Changin'* diventano inni dei movimenti pacifisti e per i diritti civili. I testi delle sue prime canzoni affrontano temi politici, sociali e filosofici, influenzati da autori letterari come Walt Whitman e William Blake, sfidando le convenzioni della musica pop e appellandosi alla controcultura del tempo. Nel corso degli anni Dylan ha ampliato e personalizzato il suo stile musicale, esplorando generi diversi come country, blues, rock e gospel. Tra i suoi album più importanti: *The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan* (1963), *Bringing It All Back Home* (1965) e *Highway 61 Revisited* (1965). Nel 1976 pubblica l'album *Desire*, che segna un nuovo capitolo nella sua carriera, con influenze blues e country. Nel 2016 riceve il Premio Nobel per la letteratura «per aver creato nuove poetiche nel grande universo della canzone americana».
