If I Were A Boy lyrics
Songwriters: Carlson, Britney; Gad, Toby; Knowles, Beyonce;

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 understand
How it feels to love a girl
I swear I d be a better man

I d listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he s taking 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 sleeping alone

I d put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she d be faithful
Waiting for me to come home, to come home

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

I d listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he s taking 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 forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

But you re just a boy
You don t understand
And you don t understand, oh
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you wish you were a better man

You don t listen to her
You don t care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you re taking her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you re just a boy
