Small Fry: Hoagy Carmichael/Frank Loesser

Intro Chorus:
C      E7/D
Small fry,
Dm7               G6
sittin' by the pool room
C      E7/D
Small fry,
Dm7                     G6
should be in the school room
C    C7        F                 E7
My, my, put down that cigarette
       D9                             G6
You ain't a-grown up high and mighty yet
🎸

Chorus:
C     E7/D
Small fry,
Dm7             G6
dancin' for a penny
C      E7/D
Small fry,
Dm7               G6
countin' up how many
C     C7           F
My, my, just listen here to me
D7                       G6                C
You ain't the biggest catfish in the sea

Bridge:
                     F              C      E7         Am
You practice peckin' all day long to some old radio song
 F            G          C
Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes
                 F                C       E7              Am
You better listen to your Maw and someday practice the law
        D7                     G7
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!
