Can’t Hide Red Lyrics

[Verse 1: Jason Aldean]
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

[Chorus: Jason Aldean, Tyler Hubbard, Both]
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 the down-home way we raised
Don’t ever wanna, ain't ever gonna change

You can't hide red
With that twang, we sing
You can't hide red
And we smoke, and we drink
You can't hide red

[Verse 2: Tyler Hubbard]
You might catch us holding doors
Saying 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 no tobacco in your lip
[Chorus: Tyler Hubbard, Jason Aldean, Both]
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 the down-home way we raised
Don’t ever wanna, ain't ever gonna change

You can't hide red
With that twang, we sing
You can't hide red
And we smoke, and we drink
You can’t hide red

[Bridge: Tyler Hubbard]
You can move from the boondocks to Beverly Hills
Drop a little hip-hop in the boombox but still

[Chorus: All, Tyler Hubbard, Jason Aldean]
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 the down-home way we raised (Down-home way we raised)
Don't ever wanna, ain't ever gonna change (Change)
You can't hide red (Red)
With that twang (That twang), we sing (We sing)
You can't hide red (We red)
And we smoke (We smoke), and we drink (We drink)
You can't hide red

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

What did Florida Georgia Line say about "Can't Hide Red"?
Genius Answer

“Every rednecks anthem. This started as a joke song but it turned into a rocker… we couldn’t not put on the album. An epic feature with Jason Aldean, he crushed the song and it wouldn’t be the same without him.”
