when i'm an old woman, i shall wear purple
with a big red hat that doesn't match any of my clothes
i'll put rhinestones on everything i own
and sparkle like queen
i'll eat godiva chocolate and gobble jelly beans
some people look down on me, but i don't give a rip
i'll pick the flowers from my neighbors yard
and then i'll learn to spit!

cause i'm a red hat woman, ain't no high class broad
just a product of my raisin' and say hey ya'll and
yee haw
i keep my christmas lights on on my front porch all
year long
i spend my pension on brandy and crystal ti- ar-as
so, here's to all my sisters our there keepin' it country
let me get a big hell yeah from the red hat girls like me, hell yeah(hell yeah)

our royal titles, now there real nice
and i can buy a fine red hat on a thrift store shelf half price
and still look sexy, sexy!
just as cute as i can be
i don't need no designer tag to make my man want me
you might think i 'm trashy, a little too hard core
i'm a member of a society that wears purple for armour

cause i'm a red hat woman, ain't no high class broad
i'm just a product of my raisin', i say hey ya'll and
yee haw
i keep my christmas lights on on my front porch all year long
i'm makin' up for the sobriety of my youth in song
so, here's to all my sister's out there keepin' it
country
let me get a big hell yeah from the red hat girls like me, hell yeah(hell yeah)

instrumental interlude(24 counts)

i'm a red hat woman, and i hope you not too shocked
to find that i've been practicing hey yall and yee haw
i keep my christmas lights on on the front porch all year long
i spend my pension on brandy and sexy satin gloves
so, here's to all my sister's out there keepin' it country
let me hear a big hell yeah from the red hat girls like
me, hell yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah, hell yeah
i say hell yeah!
