Big girls don't cry
Big girls don't cry
Bi-ig girls
do-on't cry-yi-yi (they don't cry)
Bi-ig girls
do-on't cry-yi-yi (who said they don't cry?)

(My-y girl) said goodbye-yi-yi
(my oh my)
My-y girl didn't cry (I wonder why)
(Silly boy) told my girl we had to break up
(Silly boy) hoped that she would call my bluff
(Silly boy) then she said to my surprise
"Big girls don't cry"

Walk like a man
Oh, how you tried to cut me down to size
Tellin' dirty lies to my friends
But my own father said "Give her up, don't bother
The world isn't comin' to an end"

Walk like a man, talk like a man
Walk like a man my son
No woman's worth crawlin' on the earth
So walk like a man, my son

Bye bye baby, I don't-a mean maybe
Gonna get along somehow
