In some ways she's more a woman now then she was at twenty-three
But they say a man, he goes downhill once he's past eighteen
There's not much left between them, he's too busy to take the time
So they don't make love any more, except inside her mind
Married women, they get lonely
Married women, need loving too
Married women, oh, how do I know they do?
'Cause I've known one or two
Well the kids don't need her any more and mostly she's alone
But she can still take off ten years when puts her make-up on
The men they still look at her, but she no longer looks away
For she don't even know it yet, but she'll start cheatin' any day
Married women, they get lonely
Married women, need loving too
Married women, oh, how do I know they do?
'Cause I've known one or two
Married women, they get lonely
Married women, need loving too
Married women, they need someone
Married women, yes they do
