“Real Girls” is about modern femininity; “Do Big Boys Cry?” is the flip side: modern masculinity, which Terry Taylor sees as overly concerned with being macho.
It is also a discussion of what ministers should do when they wrong someone in their congregation.
Do Big Boys Cry? Lyrics
[Chorus 1]
Do big boys cry?
Do they come down
From their place on high
To the dirty ground?
Well, what do I do?
I'm a big boy, too
[Verse 1]
(Cry)
They claim fault now and then
(Do big boys cry?)
In speeches on humility
(Do big boys cry?)
But do they step down from the stage?
(Do big boys cry?)
Go forward
(Big boys)
Confess to the crime
Weep with the victim?
[Chorus 2]
Do big boys cry?
Are they a step beyond?
Shouting 'bout right
But living wrong
Well, what'll I say?
I'm just that way
[Verse 2]
(Cry)
There's got to be a breakdown
(Do big boys cry?)
A healing in the tears
(Do big boys cry?)
There's got to be a phone call
(Do big boys cry?)
Break habits
(Big boys)
One has to apologize
Even to the little guys
[Verse 1]
(Cry)
They claim fault now and then
(Do big boys cry?)
In speeches on humility
(Do big boys cry?)
But do they step down from the stage?
(Do big boys cry?)
Go forward
(Big boys)
Confess to the crime
Weep with the victim?
[Chorus 1]
Do big boys cry?
Do they come down
From their place on high
To the dirty ground?
Well, what do I do?
I'm a big boy, too

In the Doppelganger Radio Special, Terry Taylor said that
The idea being expressed is that none of us gets to a position in our life or our ministry that we are beyond repentance, apology to those we’ve hurt, to say to another person that perhaps is just a layman or whatever, to those of us who are...
