    • Verse 1
    Bishop 
    danced 
    with a 

    thumbscrew 
    woman 

    Did 
    a double- 
    quick 
    back flip 

    and 
    slid 
    across 
    the floor 

    The 
    Catholic 
    traffic 
    flowed 

    freely 
    'cross 
    the river 

    And 
    fiddlestick 
    fiddled 

    quick 
    out the 
    front 
    door 

    Oh 
    baby 
    dumpling, 

    mama's 
    in the 
    back 
    tree 

    If the 
    bow 
    breaks 
    mama 
    might fall 

    Little 
    sad 
    and only, 

    baby 
    don't be 
    lonely 

    Mama 
    knows 
    'rithmatic, knows 

    how to 
    take a 
    fall 

    Mama 
    knows 
    'rithmatic, knows 

    how to 
    take 
    a fall 

    Verse 2

    And 
    the kids 
    are crying 
    "Flapjacks, 

    make'em fat, 
    early 
    in the 
    mornin' 

    Little 
    Jack, 
    grab your 
    hat, 

    hear the 
    breakfast 
    call 

    Muskrat, 
    bat 
    a cat, 

    kick 
    him in the 
    fireplace 

    There's someone 
    in the 
    kitchen 
    blowing 

    "Dinah" 
    on their 
    horn 

    There's 
    someone 
    in the 
    kitchen 
    blowing 

    "D
    inah" 
    like they're 
    born 


    Verse 3
    Well 
    mav
    erick 
    daddy 
    got 

    one- eyed 
    bridge 

    She glides 
    like a 
    monkey- 
    mule 

    kicking 
    on the 
    back 
    slide 

    Over 
    hill, 
    over 
    hill, daddy 

    don't you 
    spill 
    now 

    Papa 
    got a 
    switch 
    stick, 

    he's 
    pumping 
    little 
    Bill 

    Papa 
    got a 
    switch stick, 

    he's 
    pumping 
    little 
    Bill 

    And 
    Billy, 
    he's 
    crying 
    "Tomahawk, 

    tomahawk, 
    daddy 
    better 
    duck now" 

    The 
    Mo
    hawks, 
    the Mohawks, 

    they're still 
    out there 
    in the 
    woods 

    Monatuk, 

    Ocanuk, runnin' through my 
    dreams 
    now 

    With 
    fire 
    on their 
    fingertips 

    and Indian 
    screams 

    With fire 
    on their 
    fingertips 
    and 

    feathers 
    made 
    of 
    moonbeams 

    Interlude 1







    Verse 4
    Well 

    early 
    in the 
    morning 
    the 
    cannoneer 
    cried 

    "I 
    seen the 
    sailor's 
    warning 

    in the 
    western 
    sky" 

    Well moun
    tain 
    man, 
    if you 
    can, 

    cut me 
    down 
    a fir 
    tree 

    Branches 
    full 
    of candlesticks 

    for 
    baby 
    and 
    me 

    And 
    my 
    darling 
    cried, 
    she said 
    "Honey, 

    the weather- 
    vane 

    lately 
    it's 
    been 
    pointing 

    the way 
    to heaven 

    Scat
    terbrains, 
    scatterbrains, 

    watch 
    out where 
    you 
    fall 

    Champagne, 
    champagne, 

    a 
    round 
    for all 
    the 
    old choir 
    boys 

    They're bust
    ing 
    off the 
    altar 
    chasing 

    Dinah 
    through the 
    hall 

    They're 
    bustin' 
    off the 
    altar 
    chasing 

    Dinah 
    through the 
    hall 

    Verse 5

    And 
    the 
    kids 
    are 
    crying 
    "Flapjacks, 

    make'em fat, 
    early 
    in the 
    mornin' 

    Little 
    Jack, grab 
    your 
    hat, 

    hear the 
    breakfast 
    call 

    Muskrat, 
    bat a 
    cat, 

    kick 
    him in the 
    fireplace 

    There's 
    someone

    blowing 

    "Dinah" 
    on their 
    horn 

    There's 
    someone 
    in the 
    kitchen 
    blowing 

    "Dinah" 
    like 
    they're 
    born

    • 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.”
