Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Wolfmother's song "Woman" are classic rock'n'roll, straightforward and to the point. The song is a tribute to the power and allure of women, capturing the essence of female energy and sexuality. The chorus repeats "She's a woman, you know what I mean" in a confident and almost boastful tone, as if the singer is saying, "I have this woman, and you wish you had her too."


The main theme of the song is the feeling of love and desire that women can evoke in men. The lyrics suggest that the singer has met a woman who has an irresistible hold on him, and he is powerless to resist her charms. He describes how she sees right through him when she talks to him, and he feels the power of her love. The lyrics seem to be about the thrill of the chase, the excitement of a new relationship, and the power dynamic between men and women.


Despite the song being written in 2005, it has been compared to classic rock anthems of the 70s, with its driving guitar riffs and wailing vocals. The song's straightforward rock sound and catchy chorus made it a hit, and it remains one of the band's most popular songs.
