You Ain't Woman Enough

Paramore · Other Songs - Paramore

You call to tell me something

You say I oughta know

That he don't love me anymore

And I have to let him go

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



Women like you, they're a dime a dozen

You can buy 'em anywhere

For you to get to him I'd have to come over

And I'm gonna stand right here

Well it'll be over my dead body

So get out while you can

'Cause you ain't woman enough to take my man



Sometimes a man goes lookin' at things that he don't need

He'd take a second look at you

But he's in love with me

Well I don't know where they leave you

Oh but I know where I'll stand

And you ain't woman enough to take my man



Women like you, they're a dime a dozen

You can buy 'em anywhere

For you to get to him I'd have to come over

And I'm gonna stand right here

It'll be over my dead body

So get out while you can

'Cause you ain't woman enough to take my man

Oh you ain't woman enough to take my man

You Ain't Woman Enough

Paramore's "You Ain't Woman Enough" stands as a defining track from their 2013 self-titled album, marking a pivotal shift in the band's sound toward a more mature, alternative rock direction. Led by frontwoman Hayley Williams, the song blends melodic pop sensibilities with the band's signature emotional intensity, reflecting themes of self-worth and personal growth that resonate deeply with their fanbase. Released during a period of significant artistic evolution, the recording showcases Williams' vocal range and lyrical depth, moving away from the pop-punk roots of earlier works to embrace a broader sonic palette. The track remains a staple of their discography, illustrating the band's ability to craft anthemic songs that balance commercial appeal with authentic expression, solidifying their status as a major force in modern alternative music.
