Lyrics

It fills my heart with joy

"Sometimes I Wish I Were A Boy" is a song by the American pop singer Lesley Gore from her fourth album Girl Talk. The song was written by John Gluck, Jr. and Steve Donroy. It was the B-side to the single "Hey Now" and peaked at number 86 on the US Billboard Hot 100. The song was criticized due to its misogynistic lyrics. Lesley Gore has stated that she doesn't like the song since it went against the feminist image she had earned herself with songs such as "You Don't Own Me". View wiki
