lyrics

If I Were a Man
Written by Andrea Menard and Robert Walsh
Copyright 1998, Andrea Menard, Robert Walsh, SOCAN


If I were I man, I'd grow a moustache
And make all my ladies wear high heels
I would be the leader in every dance there is
Every stubborn dancing queen would follow me.

If I were a man, I could do anything
Anything that I desired
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 boysclub
I would be so masculine
I'd conquer all the ladies
With force or gallantry
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 the King of the Land

If I were a man, if I were a man
I'd want to meet somebody like me

If I were a man, I could do anything
Anything that I desired
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 want to meet somebody like me
