I'm Little, But I'm Loud Composer(s): Jimmy Dickens; Boudleaux Bryant Performer(s): Little Jimmy Dickens and multiple other artists
A lot of folks have told me I got poor, but I got right A winter apple picked up in the fall But even as a young'n I was not the bashful type 'Cause I could yell up loud to stop them all
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 the plow The singin' teacher always passed me by And so I had to sing the only way that I know how Just rear back, open up and let her fly
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 sang a special solo song in church one Sunday morn And I was plumbin' barest to my skin I hit a high and turned around, and as sure as I was born Two cows and fourteen horses came walkin' in
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'm puny, short and little, but I'm loud
