I haven't compared the lyrics, but it sounds like "...Scolded" is an adaptation or rewrite of William B. Gray's once well-known "She is More to Be Pitied than Censured" (1898).

To "censure" means to express stern disapproval of (someone). A much more appropriate word in the song than "scold."

Thanks, Lighter. I'll follow up on that. I had already found and listened to one recording of the Gray's song, but couldn't decide if they were related. Will listen to more recordings and arrangements.
