Lyrics:
She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child but she's always a woman to me
She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth but she'll never believe you
And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free
Yeah she steals like a thief but she's always a woman to me
Oh, she takes care of herself, she can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, she never gives out and she never gives in
She just changes her mind
And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding
But she brings out the best and the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a woman to me
Oh, she takes care of herself, she can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, she never gives out and she never gives in
She just changes her mind
She is frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool
But she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me

I thank God for sending us people like Billy Joel. I am a physician and surgeon with a goal of helping to alleviate pain and suffering. Good music performs the task better than I ever will.
Take my pain away doctor
Zxyw 0987 Totally depends on what is ailing you. My family couldn’t place more importance on music, and yet we’ve had surgeons alleviate our pain and suffering-and save our lives-several times. Thanks to god for great music and great surgeons (and propofol, lol).
You can see this is real ... this man really feels everything he writes and sings ...makes you feel it ... and this is alot on as far as women are conscerned and just it's raw and painfully obvious
Then also thank God for a caring
Physician . Thank you .
Not all are caring anymore .
@@DrugZcommunityif he’s a doctor then I’m David Spade
In his huge catalog, this is one of his best songs..
Agreed
Absofknlutely!!!!
Definitely
🙇♂️
Totally agree!
You know that performers are great when their live performances are even better than the already flawless studio recordings.
There’s no take 2 . Live . So these artist are gifted . My favorite Billy Joel song . I’m 64 and remember when .
Agree...I saw him three times in the 80's.
So they're like Larissa the guitarist,I txt her today,😀she's pretty good .
Line for line, word for word, perfectly describes "her". A true masterpiece, start to finish. Bravo, maestro.
Good old days when artists were talented.
I believe every man at some time has been lucky enough to share time w a woman like this....Breaks your heart and makes you stronger
most are like that :)
What a tribute to women; perfectly articulated, put to beautiful music by one of the best songwriters ever.
God I’d give anything to go back in time and experience live performances from all my favorite artists and bands. I was born in 2002 and I thank my dad for letting me grow up with old music
felt this one, I’m from 2001 and raised by my dads amazing taste too and everyone I wanna see is too old, broken up, or passed away 😔
this is me (but 2004) are you called layla? or are you paying tribute to another brilliant classic
@@tinoi2631 no haha my name is Leah but my friends call me Layla as a nickname. I do know what classic you’re talking about tho. Love that song
I like his humming, it’s so cute and relaxing. ☺️
This is one of my favourite Billy Joel songs I love the lyrics and feeling.
Mr. Billy Joel sung this song live and full of emotions. We listening to his singing could actually feel the song as his story. Thanks, Billy Joel, for your music and talent.
If I had to listen to one song for the rest of my life it would be this one it's just so beautiful and it was played at my mother's funeral.RIP.
PS sorry for accidentally creating a link to a funeral home.
Sorry about your loss.I never stopped grieving but it gets better with time.you have too find something totally different ,a hobby,or a college class,but as I say too my on children...you my child can't you must not die with me...the next days are yours now. You get too .and I want you too.the morning sun comes up for YOU. So get up and go.you will be o.k. it will get better with time .I sincerely hope you feel better.beautiful WAY too remember her by.💜
Thanks you I appreciate it.🙂
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🥇🥇🥇
What a great song for your mother's funeral ❤️
This whole show it's awesome. Traveling prayer, Anthony's song, Somewhere Along The Line and New York State Of Mind are my top of this show.
Not to mention Ain't No Crime! I wish he had done Weekend Song at this show too.
At home I am sitting down in my living room and listening to Billy's The Essential. I am simply amazed at this man' s talent.
Love Billy and Laura Nyro.. Yew Nawk. New York.. New Leanz.. Naw Leans.. Etc. Etc
I've heard his music all my life, but have only begun to listen to it. Genius.
@@The_Real_Indiana_Joe yes, he has been lucky, been able to develope his exceptional talent
Billy had such strong curly hair back then...it would seem he would never go bald
Haha! I was thinking the same thing!
Yeah, but he still rocks the bald look :)
Love Billy Joel great singer and song
No tengo ni puta idea de inglés, sé lo que dice y su música, emociona!!! Además es verdad si la amas de verdad!!!
Holy fuck it is actually hilarious when you know both languages and you know what both of these people just said.
@@qtmagic300 what did luis say
He said Billy was no bad......
VWLZ ::Luis said, he doesn’t understand English, but emotionally he loves it.
I love this song one of my favourites you are a beautiful artist God bless xx
Hello Thanks for your comment and supports, your comments and constant support has brought me this far. Keep Supporting ❤️
Please send me a mail via. Bj084143@gmail.com
His music really really touches my whole being!
This song is always linked in my mind to Dylan’s “just like a woman”. There is no way that Bob’s song did not directly influenced this marvelous song. Two of the most perfect songs ever written.
I have goosepumps every time I play this song. Love this for eternity xxxxx.
Grande Billy Joel, il mio preferito ❤
When he sat down and wrote this song. He wrote a beauty of a song. So sensual and so easy to listen too. One in a million. Alright Billy you did so right.
Growing up I was never a fan of Billy Joel. Didn’t know half the songs. But my 16 year old son is listening to him now. Taking a break from Kanye, Juice etc. He said to me Billy Joel might be the greatest musician of all time. I had a hard time debating that. All I could say was there may be the greatest Cellist in the world performing in a European orchestra. Hard to quantify the greatest. But for songwriting, performing and mastery of the piano and his own vocals, yes Billy Joel may be the greatest I will acknowledge. I’m admiring and appreciating his work as I get older. And long for the days when so many great artists of all different genres could make music and fill the airwaves. Alas, that era is gone and never to return I fear.
Absolutely
Has he heard Mark Knopfer? :-D
@@Cloxxki yes he has heard some. I’ve played Sultans of Swing for him. He likes it as do I. But don’t know much more of his repertoire with Dire Straits.
Good that he is free from BS music of gen z's😂
@@joonescobar6195 actually he does like a lot of music from today as well. Some rap. He’s introduced me to some new stuff. I like some but not all.
I bet even Alisha keys would be rocked by his piano chords!!!! Probably her goal!!!! She achieved it!!!!!
Love that flute, perfect combination
Seen him live at the SECC in Glasgow in July 2006.
His live performance was even better than his recordings.
Fantastic talent.
NEVER EVER HEARD A BILLY JOEL SONG I DIDNT LOVE! TRUTH! HES AMAZING! LOVE!!!!!!
I can remember hearing this song on the radio as a kid growing up in the 70's !! Great times and a great song !!
I appreciated this song when i wasn't a mother yet. Now i am it hit different! Salute to billy joel for understanding women and indeed all written in this lyrics is true and simply being a women needs respect because we endure so much just as being a women.
Thank you, Sir Billy. The words, the music, the musicianship. The Lord was in fine form when he created you! -- Barry in Melbourne, Australia ;--)
She's Always a Woman
Billy Joel
She can kill with a smile, she can wound with her eyes
And she can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child but she's always a woman to me
She can lead you to love, she can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth but she'll never believe you
And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free
Yeah she steals like a thief but she's always a woman to me
Oh, she takes care of herself, she can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, and she never gives out and she never gives in
She just changes her mind
And she'll promise you more than the garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you and laugh while you're bleeding
But she brings out the best and the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself 'cause she's always a woman to me
Oh, she takes care of herself, she can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh, and she never gives out and she never gives in
She just changes her mind
She is frequently kind and she's suddenly cruel
But she can do as she pleases, she's nobody's fool
And she can't be convicted, she's earned her degree
And the most she will do is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me
just amazing vocals
Talent and originality class 101......love from Galway City, Ireland......come to the West next time
You know a great artist and a great song when you compose such a masterpiece with just a piano and a guitar
A beautiful, beautiful love song. If I outlive her I'm going to insist that her family play this at her funeral.
Nobody writes lyrics like this any more where is Billy now
Yes...what is it with the kids today? Lol.
She’s always a woman to me ❤❤❤💕👍🥸
Timeless classic, Billy is awesome
Back when you actually had to have musical "chops" and earned your fame and fortune through cultivating your craft in the clubs and theaters night after night....no American Idol or You Tube careers back then.....you had to be good live. This era spawned careers that lasted 40- 50 years. You won't see that happen again.
Truuue
So beautiful. So simple yet so wonderful. His voice is so good gives me goosebumps
Wow one of my favourite
The lyrics are brilliant. One of my favourites.
I think this is one of my favourite songs of all time.. ❤
I so cherish this great American music Thankyou Billy Joel from The greatest city in the world 🌎 ❤ I 💘 N.Y
I charged my iPad from 2010 and saw this song there, I cried and this song made me wanna go back to my days of youth, the day I met the love of my life, this song is just heavenly
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🥇🥇🥇🏆🏆🏆
Billy Joel is Blessed !!!
Great ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Favorite Billy Joel song 🎶
La musique de cette très belle chanson on pouvait l'entendre sur la place en bas des tours le 11 septembre 2001 😢
Great song from Billy Joel:)
love this song
I think this is the best playing of the most beautiful song in the World
One of the best love songs ever written.
(Should be noted that I'm not a huge fan of Billy Joel, but this love song, Just the Way You Are and She's Got A Way, are all absolute ... GENIUS)
Thanks for letting me hear of the best chicago look
This song always makes me think of a woman il nvr b able to to again! I'm feel fortunate to have had her trust white she was here
This song will always remind me of my mom taking me the doctor one day when I was 8. Even though she's not a thief or any other things Billy Joel sings here
Such a beautiful song by a extremely talented artist. ❤❤
Grew up listening to every era. 70s , 80s, and 90s.
Love a few like them all!!
My favorites are Leave a tender moment, Italian restaurant ( my in-laws names are Brenda and Eddie), Allen town. Keeping the faith. Uptown girl, Honesty, Pressure, Down Easter Alexa! Oh and My Life!
Thanks for the music!
My bucket list has one of your concerts on it.
I'm not a huge fan of tender moment, but i do look the harmonica in it.
Katherine, see him live before it’s too late. He’s 72 now, and can’t go on indefinitely. I saw him in NYC Dec 19. He was simply amazing, one of the all time greats.
Such simple lyrics, yet so poetic..the magic of Billy Joel.
I love all Billy'songs. Amazingly! all his songs are timeless.
God! What A Miracle Of A Song!
I am a long time fan...just unbelievably beautiful. His voice.... incredible! Songwriting ability...top notch! In other words....PERFECT! WISH WISH I COULD SEE HIM IN CONCERT!
I grew up on R&B. Soul. Funk. So why am I so taken in by the way Billy Joel sounds on the acoustic piano?
Billy Joel she's always a woman great love song classic music from the seventies remember hearing this song growing up herring it now brings back memories good times back then
Love this song. Just pure.
C’est tellement beau. So beautiful. Time is suspended when you listen to this song.

One of the last songs that played on the world trade Center plaza it was a beautiful song.
I love the lyrics because it sounds like they're about the mistress we call America
Perfection.
Beautiful melodies with harmonies
I could listen to Billy 24/7 forever x
The song is possibly my favorite song ever. Its what i want to hear when I go under. The original is my favorite, and this amplifies what I like about the song and makes those components even better. Thank You Billy ♥️
Such a beautiful song to sing along to, one of the best!
Es bella esta canción me encanta me trae muchos recuerdos bellos muy lindos Grasias 👍❤️💖
Amazing performance✨ and the aeriel dancers were absolutely fantastic brilliant great song ❤️
This was on the radio as my son was born ❤
Essa musica é o Tema da vitória do AIRTON SENNA
I wasn't even born when Billy Joel broke out with some of his best material. But something that I've always noticed is that he did not sound like he was making music in the 70s, 80s, 90s, or what not.
His music sounded like it fit no matter when it was released, but also drastically different from what the trends were. His music was good music. Period.
As a millenial of the older end of the cohort, there was still remnants of musical tribalism which was rampant among Gen X and other early millenials... but I was the one of the few who listened to all types of genres of music as long as it was good, and I even gravitated to music that would eventually be considered timeless. What a relief it was for me to find that younger millenials and Gen Z/Centennials were much more like me, having a wide variety of knowledge of music from different eras and as a result, I'm able to connect well with those who are 15-20 years younger than me. And that's because of the appreciation of music that is good, no matter what.
Billy Joel's music, especially this one, hits so well, and though he's not Elvis or the Beatles, he's made such a significant influence on music, while it's a lowkey influence at the same time. You got a catchy melody, beautiful lyrics, solid vocals, piano, guitar, bass, and percussion, those might be all one needs for music to connect to the audience.
Great version.
absolute brilliance
Mi favorita de Billy Joel.
They have to release these great old grey whistle test performances on cd.
I NEED THIS CD
jon castro CDs are better imo
