Intro Chorus:
C5      E5
Small fry, 
D5               G5
sittin' by the pool room
C5      E5
Small fry, 
D5                     G5
should be in the school room
C5    C5        F5                 E5
My, my, put down that cigarette
       D5                             G5
You ain't a-grown up high and mighty yet

Chorus:
C5     E5
Small fry, 
D5             G5
dancin' for a penny
C5      E5
Small fry, 
D5               G5
countin' up how many
C5     C5           F5
My, my, just listen here to me
D5                       G5                C5
You ain't the biggest catfish in the sea

Bridge:
                     F5              C5      E5         A5
You practice peckin' all day long to some old radio song
 F5            G5          C5
Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes
                 F5                C5       E5              A5
You better listen to your Maw and someday practice the law
        D5                     G5
And then you'll be a real success

(Chorus Chords):
Small fry, you kissed the neighbor's daughter
Small fry, should stay in shallow water
Seems I should take you 'cross my knee
You ain't the biggest catfish in the sea

(Bridge Chords)
You've got your feet all soakin' wet
You'll be the death of me yet
Oh me, oh my, small fry
Oh me, oh my, small fry!
