[Chorus]
A Emgentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
A rCeal husband’s so 1999, so hard for a girl to find
‘EmCause most guys just hit it and quit it, and then they wonder why most girls just split it
A gCentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find
[Verse 1]
EmYou’re not a lady if you’re Amalways on your knees
Shouldn’t hCave to beg a gentleman so pEmlease be gentle please
AmOh oh oh, you’re beautiful
EmOh oh oh, I hope you know
EmHe overcompensates by Ambuying you fancy cars
Just to cCover up the fact that he stays Emout all night in bars
AmOh, if you can see
That maybe Emhe
Not meant to be
[Chorus]
A Emgentleman is so 1995, so hard for a girl to find

EmYou had his baby, so you Ammight got him for now
He alrCeady had the milk, so why would Emhe go buy the cow?
Ah tAmhen, your chance is slim

I need a Kellen Lutz and a Channing Tatum
Throw one my way, I’ll date ‘em
I need a Drake, I need a Ludacris
I need a Weezy, I don’t care who he is
Heard ‘em say, I need a Kanye
He ain’t a gentleman, but I’ll have ‘em anyway
George Clooney, Lamar Odom
