  • Verse 1
    His 
    daddy 
    said son 
    you 

    oughta 
    quit 
    dreamin' 

    Put your 
    feet 
    on the 
    ground 
    and 
    your future 

    in 
    the hands 
    of the Lord 

    But the 
    boy 
    said 
    no 
    that 

    ain't 
    enough 
    dad 

    All you 
    got 
    here 
    is 
    a ceilin' 

    four walls 
    and a floor 

    Verse 2
    He left 
    his home 
    in 
    Buckalou County 

    He went 
    thumbin' 
    and 
    sleepin' 

    on the 
    roadside 
    livin' 
    in 
    jeans 

    Along 
    about 
    Pittsburgh 

    he 
    got 
    him a good 
    job 

    Bought 
    him 
    brand 
    new 
    Malibu 
    Chevy 

    that was 
    part 
    of his dream

    Verse 3
    He met 
    a pretty 
    girl 
    she 

    was 
    thinkin' 
    of 
    family 

    He bought 
    a lotta 
    tapes 
    for his 
    Malibu 

    Chevy 
    but he 
    didn't 
    want 
    more 

    And the 
    pretty 
    girl 
    said 
    boy 

    you oughta 
    slow 
    down 

    He said 
    who 
    needs 
    a ceilin' 

    four walls 
    and a floor 

    Verse 4
    He did 
    little 
    drinkin' 
    he did 

    a little 
    gamblin' 

    Shot 
    a little 
    nine 
    ball 
    bet 
    a little 
    money 

    on the 
    football 
    games 

    He picked 
    up 
    habit 
    he got 

    it 
    on the 
    sidewalk 

    His habit 
    got 
    big
    ger 
    but his 
    weekly 

    paycheck 
    stayed 
    the same 

    Verse 5
    His daddy 
    wrote 
    letters 

    but 
    he never 
    answered 

    The pretty 
    girl 
    begged 
    him 
    to give up 

    the 
    habit 
    and 
    to work 
    on a change 

    It was 
    a real 
    small 
    gun 

    and a real 
    small 
    robbery 

    They locked 
    him up 
    and they 
    traded 

    him 
    number 
    for 
    his 
    name 

    Verse 6
    It ain't 
    no big 
    news 
    it 
    ain't 

    no big 
    story 

    You didn't 
    see 
    it 
    in the 
    paper 
    so I 
    guess 

    we oughta 
    put 
    it in 
    song 

    The boy 
    got 
    hooked 
    and he couldn't 

    get 
    un
    hooked 

    And 
    it's hap
    penin' 
    somewhere 
    now 
    and 

    maybe 
    that's 
    what's 
    wrong 

    Verse 7
    His daddy 
    said 
    son 
    you 

    oughta 
    quit 
    dreamin' 

    Put 
    your feet 
    on 
    the ground 
    and 
    your future 

    in 
    the hands 
    of the Lord 

    But the 
    boy 
    said 
    no 
    that 

    ain't 
    enough 
    dad 

    All 
    you got 
    here 
    is 
    a ceilin' 

    four 
    wall
    and a 
    floor.

    • 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.
