What are some songs told from the perspective of an older woman?
Advertisements [?]
It seems to me that few songs are told from the vantage of an older woman. I don't mean that older women wrote or sing the songs, necessarily, but that the implicit narrator of the song is an older woman (say, over fifty). I can only think of two:

Iris DeMent Our Town
Pearl Jam Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town

Anyone wanna help me out?
