    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 

    His 
    daddy 
    died 
    drunk 
    with 

    a belly 
    full 
    of rum 

    His 
    mama 
    died 
    waitin' 
    for a 

    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 

    One 
    half 
    stupid 
    and 
    the other 
    half 
    dumb 

    Born 
    to live 
    and die 
    in a 

    sharecropper's 
    slum 

    People 
    said, 

    that 
    old boy 
    was 
    born 
    to be 
    a bum 

    Well, 
    who's 
    gonna cry 
    when 
    you die, 

    Rufus? 

    Who's 
    gonna 
    miss 

    you when you're 
    gone? 

    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 

    at the 
    epitaph 
    on 
    your tomb
    stone? 

    I'll 
    betcha 
    it says, 
    Here 
    lies 
    Rufus, 

    born 
    to be a 
    bum, 

    Died 
    like his 
    daddy 
    with a 

    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 

    That 
    night 
    Rufus 
    died 

    in the 
    sharecropper's 
    slum 

    The 
    sheriff 
    never 
    knew 

    where 
    the 
    shot 
    came 
    from 

    People 
    said, 
    I 
    told 
    you 

    that old 
    boy 
    was born 
    to 
    be 
    a boss 

    Well, 
    they 
    buried 
    poor 
    Rufus 

    just two 
    days 
    later 

    And 
    laid 
    him out 
    cold 
    and 
    alone 

    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 

    at the 
    strange 
    tomb
    stone 

    It 
    says, 
    here lies 
    Rufus, 

    born to 
    be a 
    bum 

    He 
    died 
    like his 
    daddy, 

    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

      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

      "

      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 🙂

      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.
