Lyrics for Song: That Ain't a Woman's Way
Lyrics for Album: They're Stepping All Over My Heart [1971]
(Bill Anderson)
I sat alone at home all weekend waitin' for you to call
But the phone didn't ring and the door didn't knock
and I sat there talkin' to the wall
Then today when you did come around it didn't mean nothing to you
You say in your heart you know you love me and I oughta know it too.
But that ain't a woman's way baby, that ain't a woman's way
A woman has to know she's loved and needed every day
All you wanna do is tease me all you wanna do is play
Breakin' up, makin' up, stayin' all shakin' up, that ain't a woman's way
No, that ain't a woman's way.
Just today I begged you please let's have a little talk about us
But you said no that you had to go and we ended up having a fuss
If I asked you to give me a ring you probably would on the phone
Sometimes I can't help but think I'd be better off alone.
That ain't a woman's way baby, that ain't a woman's way
A woman has to know she's loved and needed every day
All you wanna do is tease me all you wanna do is play
Breakin' up, makin' up, stayin' all shakin' up, that ain't a woman's way
No, that ain't a woman's way...

That Ain't a Woman's Way
Released in 1960, Kitty Wells' 'That Ain't a Woman's Way' stands as a defining anthem of the female country singer, challenging traditional gender roles of the era. Recorded for the album They're Stepping All Over My Heart, the track showcases Wells' distinctive vocal style and her ability to deliver a message of independence with both strength and grace. As one of her most celebrated works, the song helped solidify her status as the first female country star to achieve significant commercial success. Its enduring appeal lies in its relatable themes of self-assertion, which resonated deeply with listeners and paved the way for future female artists in the genre. |
