Ain't That Just Like A Woman - Original - Louis Jordan and his Tympany Five

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
