If That Man Was a Lady

Well he walked in
With his jeans so tight
You could tell what brand of boxers
He was wearin' tonight

Wore boots that echoed
When he walked around
Left his shirt unbuttoned
About halfway down

Had a rose tattoo
On his inner arm
And eyes that smoldered
Like a five-alarm

He was sittin' at the bar
Like an old-time movie star
But there's one thing that I know

If that man was a lady
Everyone'd be buying him a drink
If that man was a lady
Everyone would say, "What would his mamma think?"
If that man was a lady
Everyone would whisper and would stare
But the fella's lookin' fine
And I think it's hella time
To get over what a person wants to wear

Well she walked in
Round half past ten
And she might as well have walked
Into the lion's den

Had a leather jacket
And high-heeled shoes
Black eyeliner
And a few tattoos

She was soon surrounded
By a dozen guys
Trying to get her number
With a dozen lies

It's the same at every bar
Though she'd travelled near and far
But there's one thing that I know

If that girl was a fella
Everyone'd be leaving her alone
If that girl was a fella
She wouldn't have to act like she was on her phone
If that girl was a fella
Nobody would whistle or would stare
But the chick is lookin' fine
And I think it's frickin' time
To get over what a person wants to wear

Now you can say all you want about a person's duds
But I can tell more 'bout a person by the things they judge
So give me a short skirt
A denim shirt
Cos there's one thing that I know

The next time this woman walks in through that door
You better find a kinder thing to say than call her a
Cos this lady's lookin' good
And I think it's time we should
All get over what a person wants to wear

If that man was a lady
Everyone'd be buying him a drink
If that man was a lady
Everyone would say, "What would his mamma think?"
If that man was a lady
Everyone would whisper and would stare
But the fella's lookin' fine
And I think it's hella time
To get over what a person wants to wear
