I have to disagree with you. NOT because I am female just that your interpretation might be a bit off. I think Dylan is talking about a woman who at one point in her life had it all and needed no one to help her get by.
"Ev'rybody knows
That Baby's got new clothes
But lately I see her ribbons and her bows
Have fallen from her curls."
But some life changing event happened and now she's forced to build up herself again.
"Nobody has to guess
That Baby can't be blessed
Till she sees finally that she's like all the rest
With her fog, her amphetamine and her pearls"
"Ah, you fake just like a woman, yes, you do
You make love just like a woman, yes, you do
Then you ache just like a woman
But you break just like a little girl."
And this part is about how she shrugged it off and looked like she moved on but Dylan knows her secret that she's just as fragile as a little girl.
