    • Verse 1
    When 
    I 
    was 
    a 
    little 
    boy, 

    barefooted 
    I'd 
    like 
    to 
    go 

    In 
    the 
    spring 
    or 
    sum
    mer
    time, 

    there 
    was 
    no 
    ice 
    or 
    snow 

    When 
    I 
    was 
    tired 
    and 
    nearly 
    dead, 

    these 
    are 
    the 
    words 
    that 

    Mama 
    said 

    Go 
    and 
    wash 
    those 
    dirty 
    feet 

    before 
    you 
    go 
    to 
    bed 

    When 
    I 
    would 
    get 
    out 
    of 
    school, 

    I 
    could 
    hardly 
    wait 

    I'd 
    have 
    my 
    brogands 
    in 
    my 
    hand 

    be
    fore 
    I'd 
    hit 
    the 
    gate 

    I'd 
    romp 
    and 
    play 
    till 
    nearly 
    dead, 

    that 
    same 
    old 
    line 
    mama 
    always 
    said 

    Go 
    and 
    wash 
    those 
    dirty 
    feet 
    before 
    you 
    go 
    to 
    bed 




    When 
    winters 
    passed 
    and 
    the 
    viol
    ets 
    blew 

    An
    d 
    the 
    springtime 
    rolled 
    around 

    My 
    tiny 
    feet 
    got 
    to 
    itching 
    so 
    to 

    touch 
    the 
    cuckoo 
    ground 

    But 
    I 
    remember 
    what 

    Mama 
    said, 
    those 
    words 
    still 

    echo 
    through 
    my 
    head 

    Go 
    and 
    wash 
    those 
    dirty 
    feet 
    before 
    you 

    go 
    to 
    bed 



    I'd 
    draw 
    the 
    water 
    from 
    the 
    well 

    and 
    grab 
    the 
    old 
    wash 
    pan 

    Just 
    a 
    fussin' 
    and 
    a 
    fumin' 

    like 
    any 
    ordinary 
    man 

    But 
    if 
    I 
    brushed 
    them 
    off 
    instead, 

    mama 
    would 
    make 
    my 
    bottom 
    red 

    Go 
    and 
    wash 
    those 
    dirty 

    feet 
    before 
    you 
    go 
    to 
    bed

      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

      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

      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 🙂

      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!!!

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      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.
