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'll be faithful
waiting for me
to come home
to come home
If I were a boy
I think I could
understand....
Oooh 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
You don't understand
ohhhh
how it feels to love a girl
someday you'll 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
