A driving rock song on Planet Waves, recorded with The Band in Los Angeles in late 1973.
The words
A man pays tribute to a strong, earthy woman who inspires him and pulls him back into the world.
The singer addresses a powerful woman, part lover and part muse, praising her strength and appetite for life. Around her he gathers striking images and hints of his own wish to return to work and public life after years away. The song charges forward with a hard, rolling groove and an urgent vocal. The Band plays tightly behind him, with Garth Hudson's organ and Robertson's guitar giving it a rough, exciting edge.
