If I Were A Boy (Remix) (ft. R. Kelly) Lyrics 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 cause they 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 lose 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 Im coming home to you and give you the world But you are not a boy, so you dont have a clue (ey) How I work and pay the bills girl and everything I do is for you (eh eh) (Beyonce) I'd listen to her Cause I know how it hurts When you lose the one you wanted Cause he's taking you for granted And everything you had got destroyed If I were a Boy (Beyonce) If I were a Girl (Kelly) I would turn off my phone (Beyonce) I wouldn't play games (Kelly) Tell everyone it's broken so they'd think that I was sleeping alone (Beyonce) Girl you know thats wrong (Kelly) Id put myself first and make the rules as I go Cause I know that shell be faithful, waiting for me to come home, to come home. But you are not a boy, so you can't understand You are not a perfect woman and I am not a perfect man (with me, with me) I'd listen to her (eh eh) Cause I know how it hurts (Kelly: and I know how you feel) When you lose the one you wanted Cause he's taking you for granted And everything you had got destroyed Kelly: Said Im sorry It's a little too late for you to come back but I cant let you go cause Im too attached (Kelly) If you thought I would wait for you you thought wrong But you're just a boy
