Words that rhyme with Woman
Woman is a common-tongue word: two-syllable, vowel sitting on a low-front /æ/, ending that rings out through a nasal. It's an unremarkable word until the verse asks it to do something. Two readings: as data — there are a few perfect rhymes, no more, the family-rhyme bucket is bare, the assonance well is bottomless; as lyric — a stop-by-stop-grocery-shelf word. Lean on assonance and the song will sound contemporary, not catalogued.

Why woman rhymes the way it does
Woman is built around a low-front /æ/ (/æ/); it's two-syllable and hums to a nasal close. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 10 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 2, assonance 2,746, and consonance 93. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. Writing-tip: don't end every line with the strict rhyme. Use the slant columns at the joints and the strict matches at the seams. Woman works hardest when the slant carries the verse and the strict match closes the chorus.
