I M Little But I M Loud lyrics

A lot of folks have told me
I was pulled `fore I was ripe
A winter apple picked off in the fall
But even as a youngin`
I was not the bashful type
`Cause I could yell the loudest of them all.

CHORUS
I`m little, but I`m loud
I`m poor, but I`m proud
I`m countrified and I don`t care who knows it
I`m like a banty rooster
In a big, red rooster crowd
I`m puny, short and little, but I`m loud.

I learned to do my singin
Walkin` `long behind a plow
The singin` teachers always passed me by
And so I have to sing
The only way that I know how
Just rare back, open up and let `er fly.

CHORUS

I sang a special solo song
In church one Sunday morn`
And I was plumb embarassed to my chin
I hit a high note, looked around
And sure as I was born
Two cows and fourteen hogs were walkin` in.

CHORUS
