Kennon, Matt - You Can Still Wear White Lyrics






Baby why you sitting here all alone,
in the bathroom crying.
Oh girl what's wrong?
You know you can tell me anything.
Are you getting nervous, bout wearin that new ring?
Well if that ain't it, is this about your dress?
I thought we've been over this...

[Chorus:]
Baby you can still wear white,
no matter where you've been.
No lookin back we're startin all over again.
I want you by my side, I gotta be your man.
Your perfect in my eyes.
You can still wear white.

You and your bright eyed baby girl,
mean more than anything.
Oh you're my whole world.
I can almost see her smiling,
that little basket in her hand droppin pettles down the aisle.
And if people talk, well we'll just let them talk.
Do what you want, this is only gonna happen once.

[Chorus:]
Baby you can still wear white,
no matter where you've been.
No lookin back we're startin all over again.
I want you by my side, I gotta be your man.
Your perfect in my eyes.
You can still wear white.

Baby you can still wear white,
no matter where you've been.
No lookin back we're startin all over again.
I want you by my side, I gotta be your man.
Your perfect in my eyes.
You can still wear white.
Oh baby, you can still wear white.

  1. E.... S....

    Still makes me cry happy tears. Now expecting another little one. God is good

  2. E.... S....

    My dearest friends, my husband was previously married with 2 kids. At the time we met, the divorce was messy and done. He was not wanting to try or go in that direction again. In truth, as hurt as he was before, it took some courage to trust again. As well as, to bring his past with him. For me on the other end, i was also bringing my past. And neither one of us cared, for we were walking together down the aisle. I was going to wear the white dress and he was going to take my hand in his forever. 10 years later and 3 more children we are still going strong. Wishing all of you the same love and lots of it in life.

    I married my husband who is in the Army in Vegas he was in dress blues and I wore a black skirt and a white shirt because I didn't have time to buy a dress..1 yr later I wore a white wedding gown. Its my second marriage and my parents were very supportive of me wearing white.

  17. S.... ....

    This is actually the opposite for me. Although I'm a virgin, I wanna wear a blush pink dress.

  18. V.... S....

    This is what gives single moms hope!!! My mom was a single mom till we meet the one man that I call my daddy and even though he passed away in 2010 at the age of fourty he is still my daddy!!

  19. S.... S....

    My fiancée started dating me when I was two months pregnant and he is a corpsman in the Navy n has stuck by me n we plan on gettin married next month with my beautiful 2 month old son. I love you Christopher Bradburry, you are my hero

  20. C.... O....

    My fiancee and I had been arguing over the color of my dress for a long time.. It broke my heart that he didn't want me to wear white just because he was afraid of what people would say.. All I ever wanted was to wear a big white dress on my wedding day.. I found this song and played it for him.. A few days later, he called and said, "You can wear white honey, it doesn't matter anymore, people can talk, you're perfect in my eyes, as long as I'm marrying you, I don't care what we wear." <3

  21. R.... ....

    this song gives me hope im 21 and pregnant the day I found out the babys father went to jail for 2 years and just found someone new who loves me as I am and ready to be a father to a child who isnt his and feels im perfect

  22. M.... R....

    Honey you wear that white dress and hold your head up..You love him and he loves you and that's all that counts. Don't let anyone ruin your special day..If I were your Dad..I'd walk you down that Isle and be the proudest Dad on the planet! God bless you and you have a great life..Me and nine have been married for 52 years..You love him like there's no tomorrow..

  23. D.... S....

    My Fiance' had a beautiful baby boy 4 months ago. The dad of her child has been completely absent from their lives. From the moment I stepped into the picture when she was 5 months pregnant, I have fallen so head over heals for the both of them. It has been a very long and hard road, coming into this situation, but when I see his beautiful little smile and the loving twinkle in her eyes, it makes it so worth it. I dedicated this song to her last month, and want it to be played at our wedding. <3

  24. h.... s....

    I am 17 and have a 3 month old baby girl. shortly after I found out I was pregnant her dad up and left...I started dating a guy not to long after that and we are happy and he made me listen to this song and it made me cry! He claims my daughter has his and says he wouldn't c have it any other way! We are truly been blessed!

  25. J.... y....

    hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  26. a.... r....

    i dont thank it matters about the dress u ware as long u love the man u are going to say i do to

  27. j.... s....

    Typical control issues...you have to pit up with my abuse cause you are too stupid/ugly/whatever for anyone else to want you......there is ALWAYS someone else out there,and if you haven't found someone decent yet.try looking in other places...

  28. c.... ....

    I had a 8 month old baby girl and was 9 weeks pregnant on my wedding day in 2010. Though we couldn't afford a wedding cause we had our kids to care for, we married at the JCP. I wore blue, but it was special cause it was the dress my mom married my dad in in 1978. We plan to renew our vows and have a big special day/celebration on our ten year anniversary. I want to wear white that day. This is a great song :)

  29. J.... B....

    Wow, that is an awesome song.

  30. P.... ....

    @HopefulSingleMommy I hope you haven't given up on all guys because of it. I'm not a bad guy but that hasn't stopped people from saying terrible things. In other words good luck.

  31. R.... V....

    Dammnit, Matt Kennon is apparently determined to make me cry.

  32. M.... .....

    this video reminds me of a girl I know and love, sometimes she gets ragged on cuz of her past, especially by my mom but she's kind, sweet, smart, and funny. man, God love her.

  33. N.... B....

    This song is so amazing .Keep writing songs u r awesome.love your music.

  34. S.... ....

    To anyone that wants to wear white that was a human created tradition, not a God given one, and so who cares it symbolizes 'purity'. You don't have to listen to anyone but yourself

  35. K.... C....

    This song really hits home. I really like a girl who has a one year old son. One day she asked me how I felt about it. This song was the first thing that came to mind. This song says so much... One of the most important things though, the past is the past. Thanks for uploading this song!

  36. U.... ....

    I'm a 20 year old guy and marriage is the farthest thing from my mind, but this song really melt my heart. I was in tears the first time I heard it. =']

  37. j.... ....

    @LawlerNichole

    Well that makes sense. I can't believe I didn't catch it! I love the song even more now. Thank you LawlerNichole.

  38. Y.... H....

    if i ever get a child......
    i will tell him that daddy loves the colour white xD xD

  39. H.... ....

    I love this song so very much I feel like this song relates to me

  40. L.... ....

    @jroberts7387
    Tradionally the bride wears white to show that she is a virgin, since they have a daughter it is clear that she isn’t one and he is telling her that she can wear white because she is perfect to him, white can also symbolize perfection.

  41. J.... H....

    AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

  42. j.... ....

    I love this song, but I don't understand what it's about. Could someone explain it to me?

    j.... ....

    jroberts7387 white is usually worn by the bride as a sign of purity...as in being a virgin. often times if you're not a virgin at the time of your wedding, you'll wear a different color. But I know many women who were not "pure" on their wedding day who have still worn white. I say it's just personal preference

  43. M.... K....

    Hope everyone has a great Memorial Day. Thanks to all the Vets who have made the Ultimate Sacrifice for our Freedom!

  44. J.... J....

    I had a smart ass comment for this video,but it was just so sweet I couldn't:)

  45. S.... ....

    I have been debating about my dress, for sometime now, until I heard this song.
    I now Know that I can still wear white<3

  46. I.... E....

    i'm 14 years old and i was raped 3 times by the same man. i told my best friend and was crying because i felt like i wasn't in control. i thought that i needed to have sex with someone to get back the control of myself that i thought i lost once i had finished crying i practically begged him to have sex with me. he wouldnt because he said that i was too important to him to do it and to loose my virginity with someone i loved and that i could still wear white

  47. P.... ....

    This is one of the best songs I have heard in a while. I wish that the country station near me would play more songs like this.

  48. A.... H....

    beautiful! the lyrics, the tune, his voice! beautiful

  49. a.... ....

    Okay...In this day and age there are people still complaining about what color dress the bride will be wearing? Who cares! Seriously, almost the majority of brides and grooms are NOT virgins when they are married, so I don't understand the stigma that wearing the color white is bringing. It's just a dress. The marriage should be more important to the couple than the dress. I'm just baffled by it. I didn't know that there were still issues out there in today's society.

  50. J.... h....

    I think we should all call in the radio stations and start requesting his songs cause i never hear him on the radio and he is more country than most people being played on the country station and thumbs up if you hate rascal flats and carrie underwood

  51. J.... N....

    This just isnt just about getting married, Its about her getting pregant, and she's young. And you know how they say you cant wear white unless your a virgin.. Well shes prego and he wants to marry her. And hes telling her she can wear white on her wedding day. God bless this song

  52. J.... N....

    This just isnt about getting married, Its about her getting pregant, and he's young. And you know how they cant wear white unless your a virgin.. Well shes prego and he wants to marry her. And hes telling her she can wear white on her wedding day. God bless this song

  53. s.... ....

    @lildibbles0688

    yay! another history lesson!

  54. l.... ....

    sorry to burst societies "only the pure can wear white" bubble. If people did their research on white wedding dresses they would discover the in the olden days ladies wore their sunday best which wasn't generally white. It wasn't until Queen Victoria wore a white dress(it signified wealth) that everyone else did. Then overly religious people placed a stigma on wearing a white dress to only those who were "pure". So pretty much I say it's the brides day forget everyones uneducated opinions.

  55. c.... ....

    @TiffyCountryGirl I think if ppl know she got raped it shouldn't bother them if she wears white.. I mean it's not her fault there are sick men out there!!

  56. Y.... H....

    thisi s a awesome song

  57. D.... S....

    @cridgeway2009 wow that is so beautiful i wish you and your girl a happy future for many years to come :) and thanks for explaining it to me i kinda thought thats what it was but i wasnt quite sure

  58. c.... ....

    @sesshylover24 yes, as a sign that your pure, and alot of people who are riding a high horse have a bad idea of what pure is. i wouldnt settle for my girl wearing anything but white. her past is her past. i love her and this is our future, not those whoo have done her wrong.

  59. D.... S....

    @6795asm ohh thanks :)

  60. 6.... ....

    SORRY FOLKS!! But, I accidently wore out the replay button! And 5 people thought the dislike button said "dis i like".

  61. 6.... ....

    @sesshylover24 You wear white at youre wedding as a promise that youre still pure.

  62. D.... S....

    @s0nguy i did! i was just asking the question i dont get it

  63. s.... ....

    @sesshylover24 listen to the song maybe?

  64. D.... S....

    how does it go by the song. Are you not suppose to Wear white at your wedding if youve been married before or somthing?

  65. F.... ....

    I just found the song I will live my life to. Thank you.

  66. z.... ....

    @MrsNikkyPoo

  68. A.... F....

    I absolutely love this song!!!

  69. L.... ....

    i love all of Matt Kennon's music... it's all so beautiful!

  70. C.... Y....

    This song needs a push, it needs to be heard.. There are so many people out there that could benefit from hearing it but it's not getting the airplay.. Help push this, call your radio station EVERYDAY, call all your radio stations, get this song played.. It's a great song and deserves a chance at everybody hearing it, don't let it die..

  71. z.... ....

    @TiffyCountryGirl

  72. z.... ....

    @TiffyCountryGirl
    omg that is ttly like me. im prego now bc i was raped. i am not terminating the preg bc its not the babies fault.

  73. B.... K....

    This made me cry...I am a teenage mom that was promised the world before I got pregnant now the dad wants nothing to do with me, but someone very special came into my life and was there for me for a while then he went to college and i moved away but he just recently came back into my life a few days ago after 3 months to finish out my pregnancy with me an possibly transfer schools to be with me and my son!!! :)

  74. b.... c....

    i heard this the other day on the radio and it reminded me of my past when id been taken advantage of someone i thought loved me and then came along my fiance and completely swept me off my feet and he played this song for me right after i heard it i absolutely love this song

  75. a.... ....

    @kennonfan1 sad this to me was that my whole family knew about me being raped twice and when he got down on one knee to ask me. He said, " starting now your not what you used to be, so forget the past and forgive the ones that did wrong, you were always pure to me and i wont be leaving not after 7yrs of dating you. lets make it official and show the world what we are meant to be. will you be my wife?" he we are 3 yrs later with our daughter and we will all dance together to this song. ^^

  76. a.... ....

    3 People missed the like button.

  77. a.... ....

    my fiance played this for me, and said this is how i want you to be after 3 yrs of our family arguing over the color of my dress, i will walk down the isle to marry my man of 10 yrs in white. Gods all bless for this song

  78. L.... L....

    Forgive me if I seem preachy. But I think this is a perfect analogy of God's love for us.

  79. 3.... R....

    @Travisharman1 cuz majority of the country doesn't know wat real country music is but wats great is that we can listen to the true artists any time we want and any of their songs :D

  80. T.... ....

    Wow! What a good song! This artist has some great songs! Shall have to make sure the radio plays one of these someday.

  81. M.... ....

    Great song!

  82. M.... ....

    Two people hit the wrong button

  83. a.... l....

    @kennonfan1 Yeah, here in Kentucky the conman radio station plays new singles, they played it last night and now they wont stop playin it, which is amazing, cause this songs freakin awesome.

  84. s.... ....

    @idahocountrygirl88 fact for the day: no one here cares, or wants a history lesson. but by all means... go on your one person crusade to change the way the whole world thinks about white dresses. let me know when you do and I will buy stock in blue dresses.

  85. T.... ....

    Why is that someone like Matt who actually sings country can not get radio time, and the Taylor Swift crap is all you can hear?

  86. A.... N....

    I like this song a lot :)

  87. S.... S....

    @4Liberty76 well good luck, hope you hear it soon!!!!!

  88. S.... S....

    @4Liberty76 this song plays non-stop on the local radio station where i live.

  89. s.... ....

    @kbeeman7 he looks nothing like Eric.

  90. t.... ....

    wow!!! what an awsome song. What I wouldn't do to have someone love me that much. It gave me chills and I am past the age of " white picket fences" but how I wish I could have found someone like that. lol

  91. m.... ....

    ok just puttin this out there, but wearing white to a wedding became a fashion after Ann of Brittany wore a white dress in 1499, Otherwise Blue as considered the color of purity not white. Just sayin... you know before someone gets the underwear in a wad over a fashion trend. Personaly i think the color of your wedding dress shouldnt matter as long as you feel great in it.

  92. s.... ....

    @sparklerock27 I'm pretty sure that's not the point of the song... I think it's more like he doesn't care what happened in her past... just as long as he can be part of her future. great song overall!

  93. D.... N....

    @prendes4 I agree with you in a way. I'm a big Matt Kennon fan, and even I'm not sure how to take this song. I wasn't being a dick towards you.

  94. s.... :....

    obviously you all are not listening to the song!!! but she is upset and regrets what she did! and everyone has a past no human being is perfect. my youth pastor used to be on coke!!! people make mistakes and god forgives us when we ask. maybe all of you who are so uptight about sex before marriage and are so "godly" need to read your bible and learn that god forgives!!

  95. P.... ....

    @intresselwetrust Just because you do not think that something is sacred or that it has been smeared that it is not still sacred. You can tell me that the sun is purple all you want; that does not make it true. Some things are sacred in spite of what the world has done to them to distort them. As far as the porn stars wearing white, just because they do it does not mean it is right. I agree that Matt Kennon is an awesome voice in music but I disagree with the idea of this song.

  96. P.... ....

    @phillipe1983 I have noticed that those with a checkered past are the ones that want it forgotten most. I wonder why that is. Have you ever thought that some people just are not pure and should not wear white. He may think she is perfect but what she has done will forever color her future, figuratively and, in this case, literally. If more people thought about those kinds of repercussions before doing some of the things they do, they would not do them and the world would be a better place.

  97. D.... N....

    @prendes4 I have to disagree. Please spare us the argument about how marriage is sacred. We live in a world of who wants to marry a millionaire, who wants to marry my dad, Joe millionaire, and so forth. Marriage is a mockery I see Porn stars getting married and wearing white. Matt Kennon is such a refreshing voice in music..

  98. P.... ....

    @kennonfan1 I am not trying to split hairs. I am just saying that I have very strong feelings when it comes to sex outside of marriage and I think sacrificing the white dress is something you have to do if you choose to indulge in that.

  99. P.... ....

    @kennonfan1 I do understand your point when it comes to rape. That is not something she could control and I would venture to say that if that happened, most people that are going to attend the wedding are aware of the circumstances so white would be fine. If she was widowed, it is almost customary to no longer wear white. I say there should be some color in that case almost as a respect to the first husband. You need to acknowledge him and his influence on your life.

  100. P.... ....

    I have to say that I like the music and I like the way he sings it but I can find good music in almost any musical genre. I listen to country music for its wholesome messages and its traditional outlook on life. I am sad to say that after "The Call" I am very disappointed that his message has gotten so backwards. I completely disagree with this premise. A white dress is not a right of a woman getting married. It is a priviledge and a reward if they are able to make it to the wedding pure.
