  • If we don't got it
    I'll go get it (it ain't a thang)
    And if it's broken
    I'll fix it (I don't complain)
    But now, see it's gettin' a little out of hand,
    Cook, cleaning, providing taking care of little man
    You want to talk about who's wearing the pants
    Baby well I don't understand

    [Chorus: x2]
    If you gon' be the man,
    Then be the man,
    Cause if you cant
    Baby I can,
    I can and I will so
    Figure it out.
    Which one of us gone be the man of the house

    (Yeah, hey)
    Boy, I just don't get it
    (You ain't supposed to act like a little boy)
    Just cause I'm independent
    (No)
    You walk around with your chest out
    Like you the one
    But if I don't do it
    Then it wont get done
    I'm a good woman
    But I'm not dumb
    You goin' be the man or my son

    [Chorus: x2]

    And I'm sick and tired of
    Being the boss for us
    (Being the boss for us)
    No this ain't the kind of love
    Its supposed to be
    You want to be
    King of the castle
    (Oh, you want to be)
    You want to be captain
    You gone have to work
    A little bit harder for that to happen

    [Chorus: x4] Writer/s: RYAN SR. WILLIAMSON, SHAFFER SMITH
