BEYONCE - “IF I WERE A BOY” LYRICS
If I were a boy
Even just for a day
I’d roll outta bed in the morning
And throw on what I wanted then go
Drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I’d kick it with who I wated
And I’d never get confronted for it.
Cause they’d 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
Cause I know how it hurts
When you lose the one you wanted
Cause he’s taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
If I were a boy
I could turn off my phone
Tell evveryone it’s broken
So they’d think that I was sleepin’ alone
I’d put myself first
And make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she’d be faithful
Waitin’ for me to come home (to come home)
(Chorus)
It’s a little too late for you to come back
Say its just a mistake
Think I’d forgive you like that
If you thought I would wait for you
You thought wrong
(Chorus)
But you’re just a boy
You don’t understand
Yeah you don’t understand
How it feels to love a girl someday
You 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’ve taken her for granted
And everything you have got destroyed
But you’re just a boy

THIS SONGREALLY BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN ALL WOMEN WHO TRULY BRLIEVE THAT THEY ARE WORTH MORE. IT GETS ME TO UNDRSTAND THAT WOMEN ARE PRECIUOS.
the song is great…the message needs to be taken in consideration by us guys, and the sound is better because it’s slow, a blues… god job beyonce, I like it a lot because i can sense her feelings too ;)

I LOV3 D!S SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anastacia - u have beyonce TOTALLY
messed up. B’s my fav singer, but
ci ci’s my fav dancer.
either way - the two are both
extremely TALENTED.
AND JUST FOR THE RECORD
ciara has N O T H I N G
b’s a goddest at this thing. She’s
been the baddest chick in the
game for a longgggg time now.
Yeah Ciara can sing and dance.
But Beyonces a PROFESSIONAL
singer, dancer, actress, producer, clothing
designer and shes even got her
own cell phone out.
Trust; B’s wayy more talented. Ciara a great person/entainer.
but you gotta admit, if there were a contest demanding
a choice of who’s better between the 2 - trust and believe
B would have it IN the bag.
*just though the you should know”
It doesn’t matter what she sings or what it sounds like she still has money and we dont.
