If I Were a Boy
Lyrics
If I were a boy even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning and throw on what I wanted and go
Drink beer with the guys and chase after girls
I'd kick it with who I wanted and I'd never get confronted for it,
'Cause they stick up for me
If I were a boy, I think I could under stand
How it feels to love a girl, I swear I'd be a better man
And I'd listen to her,'cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted, 'cause he's takin' you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy, I would turn off my phone
Tell everyone it's broken, so they'd think that I was sleepin' alone
I'd put myself first and make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that she'll be faithful, waitin' for me to come home,
To come home
And if I were a boy, I think I could understand
How it feels to love a girl, I swear I'd be a better man
And I'd listen to her, 'cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted, 'cause he's takin' you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake, think I'd for give you like that
If you thought I would wait for you, you thought wrong
But you're just a boy, you don't understand, you don't understand
Oh, how it (feels to love a girl someday, you wish you were a better man
Oh, you don't listen to her, and you don't care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted, 'cause you're takin' her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy
