Big Girls

[Chorus: Rich Cronin]
Big girls don't cry
Big girls don’t cry
Big girls (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Ay-yay-ay-yay, they don't cry
Big girls (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Ay-yay-ay-yay, they don't cry

[Verse 1: Rich Cronin]
It was your senior year of high school back in 1999
Before you got all punk rock with mascara on your eyes
You were into 98 Degrees, Backstreet, and LFO
Had a few *NSYNC t-shirts, you and all your friends at every show
The tour bus, the parties, and all-access passes
Groupies and Band-Aids, backstage skippin’ classes
Wearin' next to nothin' on the fourth day of July

[Chorus: Rich Cronin]
Big girls don't cry
Big girls (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Ay-yay-ay-yay, they don't cry
Big girls (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Ay-yay-ay-yay, they don't cry

[Verse 2: Doug Ray]
It was your junior year of college back in 2002
Your fingernails were black, and your blond hair was navy blue
Singin' along to Good Charlotte, you were such a fan of Simple Plan
You got a tattoo on your lower back that said you were with thе band
The tour bus, the parties, and all accеss passes
You looked so sexy in [?] glasses
You were wearin' nothin’ on the fourth day of July

[Chorus: Rich Cronin]
Big girls don’t cry
Big girls (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Ay-yay-ay-yay, they don't cry
Big girls (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Ay-yay-ay-yay, they don’t cry

[Verse 3: Rich Cronin]
So now you're livin' in the real world and it's 2005
Listenin’ to Usher on that brutal mornin' drive
Forget about days, there's a thousand ways that you can get back to your life
Met a young man from a local band, and now you're somebody's wife
No tour bus, no parties, no all-access passes
He's out on tour slappin' young groupies' asses
Sittin' on your sofa on the fourth day of July

[Chorus: Rich Cronin]
Big girls do cry
Big girls (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Ay-yay-ay-yay, they don't cry
Big girls (Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
That's just an alibi

[Outro: Rich Cronin]
Big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry
