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

It is nothing like Ciara’s song you dipsticks, have you not listened to them?! They are nothing alike. Personally I think this song is great :D Much better version than BC Jean and if BC Jean didn’t release it and permission was given to Beyonce and her record label to release it then it isn’t stealing. I think all you haters need to shut up and get your facts right.
**** ALL YALL WHO DONT LIKE BEYONCE YALL JUST MAD CAUSE U CANT BE LIKE
YALL NEED TO STOP HATIN ON BEYONCE
ya’ll betta stop hatin it hooot qeen b rocks..n about the ciara thing… plzzzz

i love this song…..its so true
You guys are like, retarded.
This song is a masterpeice.
I don’t see how ANYONE can not like this song.
So what? Ciara wrote a song about being a dude.
Almost every song is about the same thing, girls/guys or money.
I think this song is great

i like this song… its similar to ciera’s yes but the lyrics are more deep in this one i guess… like alot of girls can relate to guys takin them for granted and how they dont appriciate wat they had until it was gone :(
i appreciate the song!…i luv it
I LOV3 IT GIRL DONT MIND DO3S PLAY HAT3RZ . HI HAT3RZ !!!!!!
I LOVE THIS SONG
I dont give a **** what anyone says cause dis song is good and if yu dont realize dats den f*** yu then cause yall dont kno music den
keep doin ur thing beyonce
Luv yu
dont even hate on dis girl
cause yu dnt even kno her so
its d best song ever
here ya go princess fran
its a great song, heavy arrangement and nice vocals like always! I like it
at first i didn’t think i was goin to like it jus because of the title being so simular to ciara’s song. its pretty good suprisingly though. ciara’s song stated a point and kept it movin (somethin u could dance 2, which in turns people dnt catch the overall meaning). beyonce slowed it down an made sure u got her point very clearly.
WAY 2 GO B!!!
