Carrie Underwood’s Dirty Laundry Video and Lyrics

Carrie Underwood's Dirty Laundry

Carrie Underwood’s Dirty Laundry music video is both stylish and sexy as Carrie once again reminds men what happens when they cheat with another woman.   In an interview, Carrie Underwood stated, “It’s a take on a cheater in a familiar way, with the lipstick on the collar and the red wine, and there’s all these tell-tale signs that he was with another woman, and it shows on his dirty laundry….. But it’s also like she airs it out for the whole world to see”.

Watch the music video and check out the lyrics below.

“Dirty Laundry” was written by Zach Crowell, Ashley Gorley, and Hillary Lindsey.  The production was completed by Jay Joyce and the song became the fourth single from her “Storyteller” album in the United States and Canada.

 

Dirty Laundry Lyrics

That lipstick on your collar, well, it ain’t my shade of pink
And I can tell by the smell of that perfume, it’s like forty dollars too cheap
And there’s a little wine stain on the pocket of your white cotton thread
Well, you drink beer and whiskey, boy, and you know I don’t drink red

Found it over in the corner
Wadded up on the bedroom floor
You shoulda hid it in the closet
You shoulda burned it, you shoulda lost it

Now I’ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave ’em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
“I’m late again, oh, I’m so sorry”
All the Ajax in the world ain’t gonna clean your dirty laundry

If the neighbors get to asking, I won’t cover nothin’ up
I’ll tell ’em every little detail, how you drug me through the mud
I’m gonna string up your old button-down and slide it on the porch
Just in case you get the nerve to come knockin’ on my door

Yeah, I’ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave ’em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
“I’m late again, oh, I’m so sorry”
All the Ajax in the world ain’t gonna clean your dirty laundry

Found it over in the corner
Wadded up on the bedroom floor
You shoulda hid it in the closet
You shoulda burned it, you shoulda lost it

Now I’ma have to hang you out to dry, dry, dry
Clothespin all your secrets to the line, line, line
Leave ’em blowing in the wind, just say goodbye to you
All those midnights sneaking in
“I’m late again, oh, I’m so sorry”
All the Ajax in the world ain’t gonna clean your dirty laundry

(Out to dry)
(To the line)

The Dirty Laundry song is reminiscent of Carrie’s smash hit “Before He Cheats”.  Underwood stated on the video’s set. “That’s not a new story, you know, lipstick on your collar kind of story, but it’s just done in a such a nonchalant way. It’s not too angry, it’s not, ‘I’m gonna get revenge!’ It’s not ‘Before He Cheats,’ it’s more like, ‘You know what? I’m over it, I don’t care, I’m done.'”

Carrie Underwood is nominated for 4 CMA Awards this year including:  Entertainer of the Year, Album of the Year (Storyteller), Female Vocalist and Musical Event of the Year for “The Fighter” duet with Keith Urban.   Carrie will also be performing and co-hosting the live telecast with her long time co-host Brad Paisley.
