From the old MIT Outing Club Songbook:



SINGLE GIRL, MARRIED GIRL



Single girl, single girl, she's going dressed fine,

Oh, she's going dressed fine.

Married girl, married girl, she wears just any kind,

Oh, she wears just any kind.



Single girl, single girl, she goes to the store and buys,

Married girl, married girl, she rocks the cradle and cries.



Single girl, single girl, she's going where she please,

Married girl, married girl, baby on her knees.



About 40 years ago I saw a Polish movie (title forgotten) about a nun who was possessed by the devil. It had a song in it in which the rigors of convent life were compared favorably with those of marriage to a brutal husband.
