    • Verse 1
    Man, 
    a bedbug 
    sure is 
    evil, 

    he 
    don't 
    mean me 
    no 
    good. 

    Man, 
    a bed
    bug sure 
    is evil, 

    he don't 
    mean 
    me no 
    good. 

    He thinks 
    I'm a 
    woodpecker, 

    and he 
    takes me 
    for a chunk 
    of wood. 

    Verse 2
    When 
    I lay 
    down 
    at night, 

    I wonder 
    how 
    can 
    a 
    po'
    man sleep. 

    When 
    I lay 
    down 
    at night, 

    I wonder 
    how 
    can a 
    po' man 
    sleep. 

    When 
    some holdin' 
    your hands, 

    while 
    the other 
    ones 
    eat your feet. 

    Verse 3
    Bedbugs 
    big as a jackass, 

    will 
    bite you 
    and stand 
    and grin. 

    Bedbugs 
    big 
    as a jackass, 

    will bite 
    you and stand 
    and 
    grin. 

    And 
    drink up all 
    the bedbug 
    poison, 

    then 
    come back 
    and bite 
    you 
    again. 

    Verse 4
    Something 
    was 
    moanin' 
    in a corner, 

    I tried 
    my 
    best 
    to see. 

    Something 
    was 
    moaning 
    in a 
    corner, 

    then I 
    walked 
    over 
    to see. 

    It 
    was the mother 
    bedbug 
    prayin' 
    to 
    the 
    good Lord, 

    for 
    some mo' 
    to 
    eat." 

    Verse 5
    I 
    have to 
    set up 
    all night 
    long, 

    my feet 
    can't 
    touch 
    the floor. 

    I 
    have to 
    set up 
    all night 
    long, 

    my 
    feet 
    can't 
    touch the 
    floor. 

    ‘Cause the mean 
    old 
    bedbug 
    told 

    me, that 
    I can't 
    sleep 
    there 
    no 
    more.

      Best Tuning App Ever

      "

      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.

      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.
