• In this R&B classic, Jordan lists women in history who have tormented men. Looking over this pattern, he sees that this is typical behavior, and wants to warn men to watch out. The women mentioned in the song are Eve, Delilah and Marie Antoinette. There's also a mention of the Roman emperor Nero, who while not a woman, was gay.
• Chuck Berry lifted the guitar intro (sometimes played by Jordan's band on horns) for his song "Johnny B. Goode." Jordan was a big influence on Berry, as well as B.B. King and Ray Charles, all of whom played versions of "Just Like A Woman" in their live shows. B.B. King would often do a long intro before playing the song, inviting men in the audience to sing along, but warning them that they might not get any "supper" if they do. >>>
