If I Were A Boy Remix Versions

I browsed youtube just now and as expected, there will always be the "great" attempt of I've-got-nothing-better-to-do people to do the reply song for the If I Were A Boy by Beyonce. But there are two versions that I like.
Featuring R. Kelly


Featuring Lee Carr


Here are the lyrics.

Featuring R. Kelly
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

If you were a boy
Then girl you’d understand
You need to stop listenin’ 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 comin’ home to you
And give you the world
But you’re not a boy so you don’t have a clue
How I work and pay the bills girl everything I do is for you

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
If I were a girl
I would turn off my phone
I wouldn’t play games
Tell everyone it's broken
so they'd think that I was sleeping alone
Girl you know that’s wrong

I’d put myself first
and make the rules as I go
Cause I know that she’ll be faithful,
waiting for me to come home, to come home.

But you’re not a boy
So you can’t understand
You are not a perfect woman and I am not a perfect man


I'd listen to her
Cause I know how it hurts
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
Said I’m sorry

It's a little too late for you to come back
But I can’t let you go cause I’m too attached
If you thought I would wait for you
you thought wrong
But you're just a boy


Featuring Lee Carr
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 who I wanted and I'd 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 lose the one you wanted cause he's taking you for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

If I were a girl even just for a day
I'd get out of the bed in the morning and take forever to get ready
Complain to my friends as if they got a man
They talk about you cause they're jealous
and I just stay and listen to it
(I should get rid of them)


If I were a girl I don't think I'd understand
How it feels to love a boy
I swear I'd be a better woman
I'd listen to him cause I don't know everything
I would always try to tell him
That he needs to treat me better like I don't got to change at all
If I were a girl...


It's a little too late for you to come back
Say it's just a mistake,
Think I'd forgive you like that?
(I don't)
If you thought I would wait for you,
You thought wrong
(I did wrong)

But you're just a boy...
And you're just a girl...
You don't understand
No. 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
(and you don't listen to him)
You don't care how it hurts
(you don't care how I feel)
Until you lose the one you wanted
Cause you've taken her for granted
And everything you had got destroyed

But you're just a boy..
And you're just a girl...
