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 we were born this way?

You can't hide red

You can see it in everything

Can't hide the way we walk, the way we talk

It’s the down home way we raised

Don't ever wanna, ain't ever gonna change

Can't hide red

With that twang, we sang

You can't hide red

And we smoke, and we drank

You can't hide red



You might catch us holding doors

Saying grace and "Thank you Lord

For the good times and the good iife we all live, Amen"

So what if we all backwards just because you talkin' faster?

Hell, you ain't got no tobacco 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

Can’t hide the way we walk, the way we talk

It's the 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

And we smoke, 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

Can't hide the way we walk, the way we talk

It's the down home way we raised (Down home way we raised)

Don't ever wanna, ain't ever gonna change

You can't hide red (Red)

With that twang (That twang), we sang (We sang)

You can't hide red

And we smoke (We smoke), and we drank (We drank)

You can't hide red
