  • Verse 1


    Uncle 
    Emile, he's 

    gone now 
    nearly ten 
    days 

    He tole his 
    wife's 

    he's gone for 
    the 
    fishing 

    But 
    in the waters 
    off St. Pierre 

    and Miquelon 
    Isles 

    The 
    fish come 
    in bottles of 
    gold 

    If 
    the Anne-Marie floats floats 

    and the Mounties stay 
    blind 

    He'll be 
    back before 
    the moon is 
    rising 

    With 
    very fine 
    catch 
    all 
    safe 
    in the hold 

    Thirty 
    cases 
    of Trinidad 
    light 

    For 
    Acadian 
    Sat
    urday 
    night. 

    Verse 2


    Emmeline 
    Comeau works 

    the general 
    store 

    Papa says 
    she's good for 

    the 
    custom 

    She's go 
    eyes 
    like fire 

    and hair past 
    her shoulders 

    As 
    shiny black 
    as 
    ant'ra
    cite coal 

    You can 
    see her Sunday 

    morning on 
    the St Phillipe 
    road 

    Her 
    mother close 
    behind 
    like a 
    dragon 

    But 
    her 
    mama doesn't 
    know what 

    she 
    does behind 
    the hall 

    Away from 
    the music 
    and 
    light

    On 
    Acadian 
    Sat
    urday 
    night. 

    [Chorus] 
    Oh, don't 
    the 
    Verse 3

    fiddles 

    make you roll 

    'Til your heart she 
    pounds like 

    hammer 

    There's 
    fat lady 
    beating 
    her 
    pi

    ano like a 
    drum 

    And everybody's 
    higher than 
    kite 

    On 
    Acadian 
    Sat
    urday 

    night. 



    Verse 4


    Granpa 
    says it was 
    better 
    in his day 

    The 
    Mounties stayed 

    away from 
    the 
    parties 

    And 
    he didn't mind 
    a fight when 

    the spirits got 
    high 

    (You
    could always 

    throw them out in the 
    snow) 

    And the 
    rum was 
    better 

    and it came in bigger 
    bottles 

    And the 
    revenue 
    cutters were 
    slow 

    Still, 
    the old 
    Anne-Marie has has 

    wings 
    on the water 

    And there's 
    nothing like 
    Trinidad 
    light 





    On 
    Acadian 
    Saturday 
    night

    • Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

    • Well-Designed App

      Rose the Black Cat

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

    • Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
