Ain't That Just Like A Woman

by Claude Demetrius Fleecie Moore recording of 1999 from Let the Good Times Roll: The Music of Louis Jordan (MCA 12042) There was Adam, happy as a man could be Till Eve got him messin' with that old apple tree Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? They'll do it every time Lot took his wife down to the corner for a malted She wouldn't mind her business, boy, did she get salted Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? They'll do it every time Samson thought Delilah was on the square Till one night she clipped him all his hair Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? They'll do it every time From our history books we all learned Nero fiddled while Rome was burned Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? They'll do it every time Marie Antoinette met some hungry cats at the gate They was crying for bread, she said, "Let them eat cake" Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? They'll do it every time You can buy a woman clothes And give her money on the side No matter what you do She ain't never satisfied Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? Ain't that just like a woman? They'll do it every time
