Classic Country Lyrics: "Rated X" von Loretta Lynn
Mit "Rated X", einem selbstgeschriebenen Song
über die Probleme geschiedener Frauen in der da-
maligen Gesellschaft, wurde Loretta Lynn endgül-
tig zu der Vorzeigefeministin, die sie niemals war.
Privat ist sie eher konservativ eingestellt und ge-
schieden war sie nie, sie war bis zu dessen Tod mit
ein und demselben Mann verheiratet.
Well if you've been a married woman and things didn't
seem to work out
Divorce is the key to bein' loose and free so you're gonna
be talked about
Everybody knows that you've loved once so they think
you'll love again
You can't have a male friend when you're a has been of a
woman you're rated X
And if you're rated X you're some kind of goal every man
might try to make
But I think it's wrong to judge every picture if a cheap
camera makes a mistake
And when your best friend's husband says to you you've
sure started lookin' good
You should've known he would and he would if he could
and he will if you're rated X
[ steel ]
Well nobody knows where you're goin' but they sure know
where you've been
All their thinkin' of is your experience of love their minds
eat up with sin
The women all look at you like you're bad and the men all
hope you are
But if you go too far you're gonna wear the scar of a woman
rated X
And if you're rated X...
