    "I'm 
    not 
    Verse 1

    in 
    your 
    town 
    to stay," 

    Said 
    lady 
    old 
    and 
    gray 

    To 
    the warden 
    of 
    the 
    penitentiary 

    "I'm 
    not 
    in 
    your 
    town 
    to stay 

    and 
    I'll 
    soon 
    be 
    on 
    my 
    way 

    I'm 
    just 
    here 
    to get 
    my 
    baby 
    out 
    of 
    jail 

    Oh 
    warden, 
    I'm 
    just 
    here 
    to 
    get 

    my 
    baby 
    out 
    of 
    jail" 

    Verse 2
    "I tried 
    to raise 
    my baby 
    right 

    I have 
    prayed both 
    day and night 


    That he wouldn't 
    follow 
    the 

    footsteps 
    of his 
    dad 

    I have 
    searched both 
    far and wide 

    and I feared 
    that he 
    had died 

    But 
    at last 
    I've found my 

    baby here in 
    jail 

    Oh warden, 

    at last 
    I've found 
    my baby here 
    in jail" 

    Verse 3
    "It 
    was just 
    five years today 

    When his 
    daddy passed 
    away 

    He 
    was found 
    beneath the snow 

    so cold 
    and white 

    'Twas 
    then 
    I vowed to take 

    his ring 

    and his gold 
    watch and 
    his chain 

    and 
    the county 
    laid 
    his daddy in 

    the grave 

    Yes warden, 

    the county 
    laid his daddy 
    in the 
    grave" 

    Verse 4
    "I 
    will 
    pawn 
    you his watch 

    I will 
    pawn 
    you 
    his 
    chain 

    will 
    pawn 
    you 
    my 
    diamond 
    wedding 
    ring 

    will 
    wash 
    all 
    your 
    clothes 

    will 
    scrub 
    all 
    your floors 

    If 
    that will 
    get 
    my 
    baby 
    out 
    of 
    jail 

    Yes 
    warden, 
    if 
    that 
    will 
    get 
    my 
    baby 
    out 
    of 
    jail" 

    Interlude 1







    Verse 5
    Then 
    heard 
    the 
    warden 
    say 

    To 
    the 
    lady 
    old 
    and 
    gray: 

    "I'll 
    go bring 
    your 
    darlin' 
    baby 

    to 
    your 
    side" 

    2 iron 
    gates 
    swang 
    wide 
    apart 

    She 
    held 
    her darlin' 
    to 
    her 
    heart 

    She 
    kissed her 
    baby boy 

    and then she 
    died 

    But smiling, 
    she kissed 
    her 
    baby 

    boy and 
    then 
    she 
    died 

    Verse 6
    "I'm 
    not in 
    your 
    town 
    to stay," 

    Said a 
    lady old 
    and 
    gray 

    "I'm just 
    here 
    to 
    get my baby 
    out 
    of 
    jail 

    Yes 
    warden, 
    I'm 
    just 
    here 
    to get 

    my baby 

    out 
    of 
    jail"

    • 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.
