Another Side of Bob Dylan · 1964

I Don’t Believe You (She Acts Like We Never Have Met)

A song from Another Side of Bob Dylan that he later transformed into a loud electric number on his 1966 tour with the Hawks.

The words

A man is baffled that a woman he spent a night with now behaves as though she has never seen him.

The singer cannot understand the cold shoulder he is getting from a woman who, not long ago, was close to him. He moves between hurt, disbelief and wry humour, going over what happened and what has changed. The original is a brisk acoustic performance with a catch in the voice, wry rather than bitter.
