Even though the title—“What Can You Do to Me Now?”—seemed to invite trouble, the story was really about getting strong in the face of adversity. Like almost all my songs, I didn’t write the lyrics to reflect my literal real-life situation. Because I’m the composer, there are always elements of me in the story. But the woman I was addressing wasn’t Martha or Shirley or Connie. She was a make-believe character in a drama in which a man faces the difficulty—the impossibility—of straightening out his romantic relationship. That man is not me. But when I’m singing the song, the man has to be me. I’ve written the script; I’ve customized the part, the main role, for myself. I’ve got to make you believe that this story is real. And when I’m performing, you can bet your boots it is. I’m crying real tears.
