If I Were a Boy
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 then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I could get with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
'Cause they'd 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
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
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone, ooh
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 been 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
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
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
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you'll wish you were a better man, oh
If I were a boy
I think I could understand, ha, ha
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, oh
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy
Even just for a day
I'd roll out of bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I could get with who I wanted
And I'd never get confronted for it
'Cause they'd 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
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
If I were a boy
I would turn off my phone, ooh
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 been 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
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
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
How it feels to love a girl
Someday you'll wish you were a better man, oh
If I were a boy
I think I could understand, ha, ha
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, oh
When you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you're just a boy
