    Mama 


    thinks 
    I'm 
    living 
    in a 
    convent. 

    A 
    secluded 
    little 
    convent 

    in 
    the 
    southern 
    part 
    of France. 


    Mama 
    doesn't 
    even 
    have an 
    inkling 

    that 
    I'm 
    working 
    in 
    a nightclub 

    in 
    a 
    pair 
    of 
    lacy 
    pant
    s 

    So 
    please, 
    sir, 
    if 
    you 
    run 
    into 
    my 
    mama, 

    don't 
    reveal 
    my 
    in
    discretion 

    Give 
    a 
    working 
    girl 
    a 
    chance 

    Shush, 
    don't 
    tell 
    mama 

    Shush, 
    don't 
    tell 
    mama 

    Don't 
    tell 
    mama 

    Whatever 
    you 
    do 

    If 
    you 
    had 
    a 
    secret 
    you 

    That 
    I 
    would 
    keep 
    it 

    I 
    would 
    never 
    tell 
    on 
    you 

    I'm 
    breaking 
    every 
    prom

    ise 
    that 
    I gave 
    her

    So 
    would 
    you kindly 
    do 
    a

    a 
    great 
    big 
    fa
    vor, 

    so 
    please 
    my 
    sweet 
    potato, 

    keep 
    it 
    from 
    the 
    maid, 

    though 
    my 
    dance 
    is 
    not 

    again
    st

    law 

    You 
    can 
    tell 
    my 
    papa 
    that's 
    right 

    cause 
    he 
    comes 
    in 
    here 
    every 
    night 

    Don't 
    tell 
    mama 
    what 

    you 
    know 

    Mama 

    Mama thinks 
    I'm 
    on a

    Mama 
    doesn't 
    even 
    have an 
    ink
    ling 

    that 
    I left 
    them all 
    in Antwerp 

    and 
    I'm 
    touring 
    on my

    So 
    please

    if 
    you run 
    into my 
    mama, 

    don't 
    reveal

    Hush

    Shush

    don't 
    tell 
    mama 

    Don't 
    tell 
    mama 

    Whatever

    do 

    If

    secret 
    you 

    But 
    I 
    would 
    keep

    And 
    have 
    a

    mother 

    Though 
    I'm 
    still 
    as 
    pure 

    as 
    mountain 
    snow 

    You 
    can 
    tell 
    my 
    uncle 
    here 
    and now 

    cause 
    he's

    agent 
    anyhow

    tell 
    mama 
    what 
    you 
    know 

    You 
    can 
    tell 
    my 
    grandma 

    treat
    s 
    me fine 

    cause 
    yesterday 
    she 
    joined 
    the line 

    But don't 
    tell 
    my 
    mama 
    what 
    you 
    know 

    You 
    can 
    tell 
    my 
    brother 

    that 
    I'm 
    crazy 

    When he 
    squeezes 
    on 
    me 
    I 
    squeal 
    on 
    him 

    But 
    don't 
    tell 
    Mama 

    Just 
    don't 
    tell 
    Mama

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
