    Verse 1
    Every 
    Friday 
    evening 
    about 
    sundown 

    Ole' 
    Black 
    Jack 
    Fletcher 

    and Mississippi 
    Sam 

    Come 
    ridin' 
    their mules 
    and 

    leading 
    their hound

    Down to 
    my 
    place 

    They holler 
    "Hey 
    son" 

    have 
    you got 
    a drink 

    Gonna 
    make 
    it hard 
    on 
    you if 
    you 
    ain't 

    Verse 2
    I'd 
    grin 
    and point 
    to a 
    jug 

    coolin' 
    in the 
    spring 

    They turn 
    the 
    hounds 
    loose 

    and 
    let'em 
    run 

    Drink 
    a little 
    whiskey 
    and have 
    a lot 
    of fun 

    Talk 
    about 
    the days 
    when 
    they 

    were 
    younger 
    than 
    nowadays 

    Verse 3
    Talk 
    about 
    women 
    young 
    and 
    old 

    It 
    was hard 
    to believe 
    all the 
    stories 
    told 

    Won
    der 
    how 
    they 
    to 
    be 
    as 

    old 
    as they 
    are 
    now 

    Well 
    Black 
    Jack 
    Fletcher 

    and Mississippi 
    Sam 

    Fought 
    together 
    in 
    Viet
    nam 

    Mean 
    as hell 
    but 
    they say, 

    "Yes 
    ma'am" 
    to your 
    momma 

    Verse 4
    They 
    gambled 
    away 
    all the 

    money 
    they 
    made 

    Knowing 
    they was 
    never 
    gonna 

    change 
    their ways 

    Living 
    out 
    every 
    single 
    day 
    like 
    an

    other 
    wasn't 
    comin' 

    Verse 5

    Well 
    Ole' 
    Black 
    Jack 
    Fletcher 

    was 
    an ornery 
    man 

    Mississippi 
    Sam 
    didn't 
    give 
    a damn 

    They'd 
    steal 
    a lady 
    from 
    man 

    while 
    he was 
    look
    in' 

    Well there 
    ain't 
    no 
    doubt 

    they was 
    both 
    outlaws 

    Turnin' 
    yellow 
    corn 
    into 
    alcohol 

    But they 
    never 
    hurt 
    no 
    one 
    who 

    didn't 
    need 
    hurtin' 

    Verse 6
    Black 
    Jack 
    Fletcher 

    and Mississippi 
    Sam 

    Always 
    getting 
    in 
    and out 
    of a jam 

    Makin' 
    up their 
    own 
    law 
    of the 
    land, 

    while 
    runnin' 

    They knew 
    life 
    was just 
    a luck 
    of the draw 

    So they 
    played 
    a game 

    with the 
    local 
    law 

    Laughin' 
    and 
    sayin' 
    a catchin' 

    comes 
    before 
    hangin' 

    Interlude 1

    Verse 7
    Now I 
    wouldn't 
    take 
    nothin' 

    for those 
    days 

    Every 
    now 
    and then 
    visit 
    their graves 

    And as 
    the 
    moon 
    hangs 
    in the 
    haze 

    I have 
    me 
    a drink 
    to Fletcher 
    and Sam

    • 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.
