LS069 - She's A Woman - Lecture Series (bonus)

In this Lecture Series deep dive, we pull “She’s a Woman” apart to find the craft hiding in plain sight. First, we scan the lyrics for structure, cadence, and sly wordplay, from the racy “turn me on” placement to unexpected internal rhymes and that clever enjambment that resolves a line one phrase later. Then we pivot to arrangement under a microscope: John’s relentless stabs on two and four, the rolling bass as the backbone, piano echoes of the vocal, and a stripped setup that spotlights the melody. You’ll hear how Paul vaults up, then snakes down, shaping a hook with big interval jumps and off-beat stresses. We map the harmony too, charting an A mixolydian canvas interrupted by a brief, color-splash middle eight that hints at Paul’s future key-play. We compare its DNA to “I Feel Fine,” trace the solo’s blues logic, and close by stress-testing that Little Richard-style outro. Tune in to re-hear the song with fresh ears.
