If I Were A Boy lyrics

*Beyonce*
If I were a boy
Even just 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 with who I wanted
And 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

I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you loose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

*R.Kelly*
If you were a boy
Then girl you'd understand
You need to stop listening to your friends
Love, respect and trust your man

So I go to clubs with the guys
And sometimes flirt with the girls
I should be able to roll out
As long as I'm coming home to you
And give you the world

But your not a boy
So you don't have a clue
How I work and pay the bills
Girl everything I do is for you

*Beyonce*
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts
When you loose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a boy

*R.Kelly*
If I were a girl

*Beyonce*
I would turn off my phone

*R.Kelly*
I wouldn't play games

*Beyonce*
Tell everyone it's broken
So they would think I was sleeping alone

*R.Kelly*
Girl you know that's wrong

*Beyonce*
I'd out 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

*R.Kelly*
But your not a boy
So you can't understand
You are not a perfect woman
And I am not a perfect man

*Beyonce*
I'd listen to her
'Cause I know how it hurts

*R.Kelly*
And I know how you feel

*Beyonce*
When you loose the one you wanted
'Cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

*R.Kelly*
I said I'm sorry

*Beyonce*
It's a little too late for you to come back

*R.Kelly*
Girl I can't let you go
'Cause I'm too attached

*Beyonce*
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong

But your just a boy

how can a person.. copy it!? is it impossible?!

The remix with R.kelly is way better!

I think the video vindicates the song from being overly biased towards guys because in the video both man and woman play a part in hurting each other.

Wow! I love this song...but its getting on my nerves cause its portraying all guys as no good. I think that all girls want a bad boy. Cause I'm a nice guy and my GF left me for the school womaniser...she had the fortitude to say I was too good to be true.

this song related to me.. om whats happening to me right now! those guys are very numb! huhu!they just love us because they need us!then after what they got they just leave us! girl power!

good song..!!!..very nice!..but..i would love this song more if womanizer bcome nu,be 1
