You can trade that pickup for a brand new Cadillac
Slap you on that custom Gucci suit
And ditch that camo hat
You can move from the boondocks to Beverly Hills
Drop a little hip-hop in the boombox
But still,
you can't hide red Don't you know you were born this way?
You can't hide red You can see it in everything
Yeah,
like the way we walk,
the way we talk It's a down-home way we raised
Don't ever wanna,
ain't ever gonna change You can't hide red
With that twang we sang You can't hide red
Yeah, we smoked and we drank You can't hide red
Preachers openin' doors,
sayin' grace and thank you,
Lord
For the good times and the good life we all live,
amen
So what if we all backwards just because you talkin' faster?
Hell, you ain't got nothing backer in your lip
You can't hide red Don't you know we were born this way?
You can't hide red You can see it in everything
Yeah,
like the way we walk,
the way we talk It's a down-home way we raised
Don't ever wanna,
ain't ever gonna change You can't hide red
With that twang we sang You can't hide red
Yeah, we smoked and we drank You can't hide red
You can move from the boondocks to Beverly Hills
Drop a little hip-hop in the boombox But still,
you can't hide red
Don't you know we were born this way?
You can't hide red
You can see it in everything Yeah,
like the way we walk,
the way we talk
It's a down-home way we raised Don't ever wanna,
ain't ever gonna change
You can't hide red With that twang we sang
You can't hide red We smoked, we drank
You can't hide red
