Lyrics If I Were A Boy - Mickey Guyton

If I Were A Boy

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
I’d drink beer with the guys
And chase after girls
I’d make out with who I wanted
And never get busted for it
'Cause they stick up for me
If I were a boy
I’d think that I’d 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 just turn off my phone
And tell her that it’s broken
So she thinks that I was sleeping alone
I’d put myself first
And make the rules as I go
'Cause I know that she’d be faithful
Waiting for me to come home (waiting for me)
If I were a boy
I think that I’d 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
It’s a little too late for you to come back
Say it’s just a mistake, think God would forgive you like that
If you thought that I would wait for you, you thought wrong
But you’re just a boy
You don’t understand (you don’t understand)
How it feels to love a girl
Someday, you wish you were a better man, oh
You don’t listen to her
You don’t care how it hurts
Until you lose the one you wanted
'Cause he’s taken you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed
But you’re just a boy
