BOB-O-LINKS:
Big Noise blew in from Winnetka
Stole each girlie's heart and then
Big Noise blew in from Winnetka
Big Moise blew right out again
Girls were sighin'
Their boyfriends cryin'
Their hearts were breakin' when
Big Noise blew in from Winnetka
Big Noise blew right out again
Stop! Look! Listen!
Listen to the Big Noise
(Drum & Bass Solo)
Stop! Look! Listen!
Here comes the Big Noise
BOB CROSBY:
I'm called the Big Noise from Winnetka
And I play romantic parts
I just blew in from Winnetka
Where I broke a million hearts
Oh, I've had my fun
And yet there's just one
Who got me from the start
Exit Big Noise from Winnetka
Enter big noise in your heart
BOBALICKS:

Big noise blew in from Winnetka,
Stole each girlie's heart and then,
Big noise blew in from Winnetka,
Big noise blew right out again!
Oh, the girls were sighin',
Their boys were cryin',
Their hearts were breakin' when
That six foot giant came in.
Big noise blew in from Winnetka,
Big noise blew right out again!
