Verse 1
G

Will Rufus was a redneck

through and through

Drinkin' and fightin'

was all he ever knew

Born with a corncob in his mouth

In Thibodaux, Louisiana, way down south
F
C

His daddy died drunk with

a belly full of rum
D

His mama died waitin' for a
G

miracle to come

People said that old boy was

born to be a bum

Hanging around with the rest of the riff -raff

down at the pool hall on Main Street

Wearing a red bandana

and a sweaty old straw hat

and Union all -cover, all dirty bare feet
C

One half stupid and the other half dumb
D

Born to live and die in a
G

sharecropper's slum

People said,

that old boy was born to be a bum
C

Well, who's gonna cry when you die,

Rufus?

Who's gonna miss
D
Dm

you when you're gone?
D
C

Will it be the black man

you called a nigger?

The hippie that you beat up

just cause you was bigger?

Will the riff -raff laugh
D
Dm

at the epitaph on your tombstone?
D
G

I'll betcha it says, Here lies Rufus,

born to be a bum,

Died like his daddy with a
F
G

belly full of rum.

Well, Rufus went walking

one cold dark night,

Drunker than a skunk

and spoiling for a fight

They beat up an old man

named Booker T. Clay

Just because the man was black

and he was standing in the way
C

That night Rufus died

in the sharecropper's slum
D

The sheriff never knew

where the shot came from
G

People said, I told you

that old boy was born to be a boss
C

Well, they buried poor Rufus

just two days later
D
Dm
D

And laid him out cold and alone
C

And Booker T. Clay

was the only man there

He bought the great margarine,

he said a little prayer

Now people passin' by stop and stare
D

at the strange tombstone
Dm
D
G

It says, here lies Rufus,
D

born to be a bum
G
Dm

He died like his daddy,
C
G

with a belly full of rye

Yeah, it's gonna cry when you die,

you know

Oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah

  • 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.
