Big Girl - Eleanor Fye

Big Girl Lyrics

This is the year
She stopped sleeping with a teddy bear
She started growing out her hair
Made a sweater to wear
This is the time
Of her life they tell her
Seize the day
Play now, you won’t have to pay
It’ll be okay
And oh…
She’s a big girl now
She doesn’t have to cry
She doesn’t have to wonder why
She just walks and waves
Hi and bye

She’s a big girl now
She doesn’t have to prove
She just has to move
On and on and on and on and on…
“This is the day
That the Lord has made,” her mother said.
“Rise and shine my dear, get out of bed
You can sleep when you’re dead.”
This is the moment
This is the moment she’s been waiting for
Her legs are shaking as she takes the floor
No need to wait anymore…
She’s a big girl now
She doesn’t have to cry
She doesn’t have to wonder why
She just walks and waves
Hi and bye
She’s a big girl now
She doesn’t have to prove
She just has to move
On and on and on and on and on
And on and on and on and on…
She’s a big girl now
She doesn’t have to cry
She doesn’t have to wonder why
She just walks and waves
Hi and bye
