Question

I have a doubt
Hello! I see in a music a phrase: She ain't got. Is this common?I read that this is an informal language. Is it really?

Answer

Depends on the area of the country.  In the south, yes.  In Colorado, no.

It means: "She does not have" or "she doesn't have"

Answer

Ellis:

"She ain't  got" is demonstrative of poor grammar.  
One has to be careful of popular music, because some of it it not demonstrative of a good grammatical usage.---Warm Regards, Bruce

Answer

Spencer is right, it means "she does not have". It is very informal and generally is only used when speaking with close friends/family or in song lyrics. I live in the Southeastern U.S. and occasionally I hear people say that.
