If I Were a Man

Lyrics

If I were a man I'd grow a mustache I'd make all of my ladies wear high heels I would be the leader in every dance there is And every stubborn dancing queen would follow me If I were a man I could do anything Anything that I desire I'd be the man in mankind and the universal he I'd never go out on a limb because I'd be the tree If I were a man I'd be in the boys club I would be so masculine I'd conquer all the ladies With force or galantry I'd hold you in my arms just so that you could hold me If I were a man, if I were a man I'd like to meet somebody like me If I were a man I'd speak with authority I would be so eloquent My stacked vocabulary and my witty repartee Would win respect from all my peers, but never give me away If I were a man I'd be a cowboy I'd terrify you with my gun I'd be the cop in cops and robbers I'd be a demolition man If I blew up all my friends I'd be king of the land If I were a man, if I were a man I'd like to meet somebody like me [Scatting] If I were a man I could do anything Anything that I desire I'd be the man in mankind and the universal he Every door that once was shut would open for me If I were a man If I were a man, I'd like to meet somebody like me If I were a man, I'd like to meet somebody like me If I were a man, I'd like to meet somebody like me
