You Ain’t Woman Enough (To Take My Man) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You've come to tell me somethin'
You say I ought to know
That he don't love me anymore
And I'll have to let him go
Well, you say you're gonna take him
Oh, but I don't think you can
Because you ain't woman enough
To take my man

[Chorus]
Women like you, they're a dime a dozen
You can buy 'em anywhere
For you to get to him, I'd have to move over
And I'm gonna stand right here
It'll be over my dead body
So get out while you can
Because you ain't woman enough
To take my man

[Verse 2]
Sometimes, a man's caught lookin'
At things that he don't need
He took a second look at you
But he's in love with me
Well, I don't know where that leaves you
Oh, but I know where I stand
And you ain't woman enough
To take my man
[Chorus]
Women like you, they're a dime a dozen
You can buy 'em anywhere
For you to get to him, I'd have to move over
And I'm gonna stand right here
It'll be over my dead body
So get out while you can
Because you ain't woman enough
To take my man
No, you ain't woman enough
To take my man
