    Verse 1
    I was born 
    and raised, 

    A bootlegger's 
    boy, 

    In the Cherokee 
    Hills, 

    I applied 
    my trade, 

    In Mountain 
    City, 

    I had 
    me a time, 

    Just 
    making money, 

    Verse 2
    On Moonshine. 


    So I hauled 
    my load, 

    Into Knoxville 
    Town, 

    I met 
    me a gal, 

    And we knocked 
    around, 

    But them Knoxville 
    girls, 

    Can't leave 
    me alone, 

    In my suits 
    so fine, 

    And my bottle 
    of corn. 

    I'm go
    ing back 
    to Mountain 
    Verse 3
    City, 

    Where I 
    can make 
    another 
    run, 

    Load 
    my trunk 
    with Moon
    shine whiskey, 

    I am 
    a brave 
    Bootlegger's 
    son. 

    Verse 4

    Yeah 
    I sold 
    that corn, 

    To the Circuit 
    Judge, 

    On the Public 
    Square, 

    To Mayor 
    Trent, 

    But I met 
    with trouble, 

    On the tracks 
    one night, 

    With a drunken 
    man, 

    Verse 5
    I commenced 
    to fight. 


    Yeah I fought 
    five rounds, 

    Then I put 
    him away, 

    With a wicked 
    jab, 

    From a razor 
    blade, 

    And the women 
    screamed, 

    As the bottles 
    broke, 

    On stoney 
    ground, 

    Where the blood 
    did flow. 

    Verse 6
    I'm go
    ing back 
    to Mountain 
    City, 


    Gonna make 
    those reven
    ues 
    run, 

    I killed 
    a man 
    in a feud 
    of whiskey, 

    I am 
    a cruel 
    Bootlegger's 
    son. 

    Interlude 1






    Verse 7
    Now I roam 
    the night, 

    Just to hide 
    my shame, 

    I lost 
    all my money, 

    Can't find 
    a friend, 

    Gonna drag 
    my bones, 

    To the moun
    tainside, 

    If corn 
    don't kill 
    me, 

    might nev
    er die. 

    Verse 8
    I'm go
    ing back 
    to Mountain 
    City, 

    Or else 
    they'll hang 
    me this 
    I know, 

    I killed 
    a man 
    in a feud 
    of whis
    key, 

    I am 
    a cruel 
    Bootlegger's 
    boy. 

    I'm go
    ing back 
    to Mountain 
    Verse 9
    City, 


    To the Cherokee 
    Hills 
    I star
    ted from, 

    Going 
    home broke 
    ain't 
    it a pity, 

    I am 
    a cruel 
    Bootlegger's 
    son.

    • 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.
