Ain't it just
Ain't it just
Just like a women
Read about a thing in the paper today
Read about a thing in the paper today (ye ye)
A women drove a man to drink now he's in ruin

Ain't it just

Just like a women
I read about a thing in the paper today

A man did all he can but she kept on running
A man did all he can but she kept on running
Ain't it just

I read about a thing in the paper today
I read about a thing in the paper today (alright)
A man shot a women now now he's in prison

(Ooo) just like a woman

The song "Ain't It Just Like a Woman" by Geordie is a song that talks about the ways that women can harm men. The lyrics suggest that women can be the reason why men go into ruin or end up in prison. The song is driven by a straightforward and repetitive chorus of "Ain't it just, just like a woman" which is used to emphasize how predictable and patterned the behaviors of women can be.
The first verse tells the story of a woman driving a man to drink and the consequences that follow. The second verse is about a man who tries to do everything he can to make a woman happy, but she just keeps on running away from him. The third verse tells the tale of a man who shoots a woman and ends up in prison for his actions. All these stories are intended to highlight how women can have a destructive impact on men's lives.
The use of the phrase "Ain't it just" in the chorus is interesting because it is a colloquialism that is often used to express discontent or disappointment. In this song, it is used to suggest that the destructive behavior of women is something that is so predictable and commonplace that it is a source of disappointment. The song also seems to suggest that it is inevitable that men will be hurt by women, which is a rather pessimistic view of relationships.
Overall, the song leaves much to be desired in terms of its depiction of women as being solely responsible for the harm that men experience. While it is true that relationships can be complicated and that people can cause one another pain, it is important to recognize that there are nuanced and complex factors at play in any situation. Reducing the issue to a simplistic narrative of women being the source of men's problems is unhelpful and ultimately unproductive.
