[Verse 1] 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 Because they stick up for me [Chorus] 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 Because I know how it hurts When you lose the one you wanted Because he's taking you for granted And everything you had got destroyed
[Verse 2] 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 Because I know that she'll be faithful Waiting for me to come home, to come home [Chorus] [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] [Outro] But you're just a boy
