Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Big girl, you are beautiful
[Verse 2]
Walks into the room
Feels like a big balloon
I said, "Hey girl, you are beautiful"
Diet coke and a pizza please
Diet coke, I'm on my knees
Screaming, "Big Girl, you are beautiful"
[Verse 3]
You take your skinny girls
Feel like I'm gonna die
'Cause a real woman
Needs a real man
Here's why
[Verse 4]
You take your girl
And multiply her by four
Now, a whole lot of woman
Needs a whole lot more
[Verse 5]
Get yourself to the Butterfly Lounge
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on 'round
And they'll be calling you, "Baby"
Don't need to fantasize
Since I was in my braces
A watering hole
Where the girls are round
And curves in all the right places
[Verse 6]
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
[Verse 7]
Walks into the room
Feels like a big balloon
I said, "Hey girl, you are beautiful"
Diet coke and a pizza please
Diet coke, I'm on my knees
Screaming, "Big Girl, you are beautiful"
[Verse 8]
You take your girl
And multiply her by four
Now, a whole lot of woman
Needs a whole lot more
[Verse 9]
Get yourself to the Butterfly Lounge
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on around
And they'll be calling you, "Baby"
No need to fantasize
Since I was in my braces
A watering hole
Where the girls are round
And curves in all the right places
[Verse 10]
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
[Verse 11]
Get yourself to the Butterfly Lounge
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on around
And they'll be calling you, "Baby"
No need to fantasize
Since I was in my braces
A watering hole
Where the girls are round
And curves in all the right places
[Verse 12]
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
[Verse 13]
Oh, you are beautiful
Get yourself to the Butterfly Lounge
(Big girls, you are beautiful)
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy come on Around
(Big girls, you are beautiful)
And they'll be calling you, "Baby"
No need to fantasize
(Big girls, you are beautiful)
Since I was in my braces
A watering hole
(Big girls, you are beautiful)
Where the girls are round
And curves in all the right places
[Verse 14]
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
Big girls, you are beautiful
[Verse 15]
Oh, you are beautiful
Get yourself to the Butterfly Lounge
(Big girls, you are beautiful)
Find yourself a big lady
Big boy, come on 'round
(Big girls, you are beautiful)
And they'll be calling you, "Baby"
No need to fantasize
(Big girls, you are beautiful)
Since I was in my braces
Of a watering hole
(Big girls, you are beautiful)
Where the girls are round
And curves in all the right places
[Verse 16]
Big girl, you are beautiful
Big girl, you are beautiful
Big girl, you are beautiful
Big girl, you are beautiful
[Verse 17]
Big girl, you are beautiful
