Well, if you've been a married woman
And things didn't seem to work out
Divorce is the key to bein' lose and free
So you're gonna be talked about

Everybody knows that you've loved once
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
That even man turned civil 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

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
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
You're some kind of goal
That even man turned civil 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

(Why us women don't have a chance)
('Cause if you've been married, you can't have no fun at all)
(Well, you're rated X)
(No matter what you do, they're gonna talk about you)
(Look down their noses)
(I, I don't know what to think)
(Give's them something to talk about I guess) Writer/s: Loretta Lynn
