You know you,
Woman,
You gotta be,
Woman,
I've got the feeling of love,
When you're talking to me, see right through me,
I've got the feeling of alone
She's a woman, you know what I mean,
You better listen, listen to me
She's gonna set you free oh oh yeah
You've come looking for me, like I've got to set you free
You know I can't free nobody,
You've come looking for me, like I've got to set you free,
I can't be nobody.
She's a woman you know what I mean,
You better listen,listen to me,
She's gonna set you free oh oh yeah

The song "Woman" by Wolfmother is a high-energy rock song that celebrates the power of femininity. The lyrics are largely focused on a mysterious woman who has a potent effect on those around her. The song begins with the chorus "Woman, You know you, Woman, You gotta be, Woman, I've got the feeling of love," and the repetition of the word "Woman" sets the tone for the rest of the song. The singer feels that this woman has a magnetic pull on him and that she has the power to see right through him.
The verses of the song describe a woman who is both alluring and intimidating. The lyrics suggest that the woman is more than just a physical entity, but rather a force to be reckoned with. The chorus is then repeated, with the addition of the line "She's gonna set you free oh oh yeah." The idea of this woman as a liberator is reiterated, but it is unclear what exactly she is meant to be freeing anyone from. As the song progresses, the singer repeats the line "You've come looking for me, like I've got to set you free," acknowledging that people are drawn to him like they are drawn to this woman, but he is not capable of saving them from themselves.

This song kicked some serious ass when I was a teenager. Such a great tune. The 00s were really a new golden age of rock.
