J Rice Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I was your boyfriend, I′d never let you go
I can take you places you ain't never been before
Baby, take a chance or you′ll never ever know
I got money in my hands that I'd really like to blow
Swag, swag, swag, on you
Chillin' by the fire while we eatin′ fondue
So say hello to falsetto in three, two, swag
I'd like to be everything you want
Hey girl, let me talk to you
If I was your boyfriend, never let you go
Keep you on my arm girl, you′d never be alone
I can be a gentleman, anything you want
If I was your boyfriend, I'd never let you go, I′d never let you go
Tell me what you like yeah tell me what you don't
I could be your Buzz Lightyear, fly across the globe
I don′t ever wanna fight yeah, you already know
I'm a make you shine bright like you're laying in the snow
Burr
Girlfriend, girlfriend, you could be my girlfriend
You could be my girlfriend until the w-w-world ends
Make you dance do a spin and a twirl and
Voice goin crazy on this hook like a whirlwind
Swaggy
I′d like to be everything you want
Hey girl, let me talk to you
If I was your boyfriend, never let you go
Keep you on my arm girl, you′d never be alone

Are you being serious? THIS IS AMAZING! I doubt Beiber did or even could produce all of the music, this was epic, and shows just how musically talented you really are. Vocals were so good :)
Erin Rice
Another great vid bro! You never stop creating and reinventing new ideas to share great tunes :) can't wait for the next jrice original!!!
Jay Alia
As soon as I heard this song, I hoped you'd cover it because the falsetto was perfect for your vocals. The song is actually really really good. It kinda stepped him out of the kiddy stuff he used to do, much like Miley Cyrus had to do with her career only his is bein accepted a lot better. This song is incredible, and your cover is definitely awesome.

How did you connect the voice with the instrumental ? Can you plug a microphone into the ipad ? Apart from that, that's a good cover, I liked it :) especially the end ;)

Honestly, I'm not a big fan of Justin Bieber either but JRice still has the right to choose which songs he'd like to sing and which ones he wouldn't. And um, the hashtags only work on Twitter.
