Lyrics
She Dyed It Red
Verse 1:
He stood there watching as the doors flew open at the end of the aisle
Something wasn't quite right, he could tell by that curious smile
Instead of a procession he got a confession
And all she said was "no"
But she threw the bouquet, like they do anyway
And she was gone before it hit the floor
Chorus:
So she dyed it Red / Got a new look now
She dyed it red, red, red / She’s a new girl now
The seam's a little higher, the fit's a little tighter
She wears it with no regrets
It was still a damn good dress
So she dyed it red
Verse 2:
So off she goes to make some choices that were never hers to choose
Leaving behind the years of being pushed down in a lifetime of rules
With some brand new hair, a brand new pair, and a brand new attitude
You wouldn’t even recognize her now if she was to walk right up to you.
Chorus:
She dyed it Red / Got a new look now
She dyed it red, red, red / She’s a new girl now
The seam's a little higher, the fit's a little tighter
She wears it with no regrets
It was still a damn good dress
So she dyed it red
Bridge:
She says "One day I’ll try my hand at love again
Maybe I’ll call up the one that left me flat
Maybe I’ll get some new ink
Something trashy and pink
And never show him where it’s at”.
Solo :
Chorus:
She dyed it Red / It’s a good look now
She dyed it red, red, red / She’s a new girl now
The seam's a little higher, the fit's a little tighter
She wears it with no regrets
It was still a damn good dress
So she dyed it red
So she dyed it red
She dyed it red
She’s a new girl now
So she dyed it red
Oh She dyed it red
