    In 
    a 
    Mis
    sissippi 
    cotton 

    pickin' 
    Delta 
    town 

    One 
    dusty 
    street 
    to 
    walk 
    up 
    and 
    down 

    Nothin' 
    much 
    to see 
    but 

    a starvin' 
    hound 

    In a 
    Mississippi 
    cotton 

    pickin' 
    Delta 
    town 


    Verse 2
    Down 
    in 
    the 
    Delta 
    where 
    I 
    was 
    born 

    All 
    we 
    raised 
    was 
    cotton, 

    pota
    toes 
    and 
    corn 

    I've 
    picked 
    cotton 
    till 
    my 

    fingers 
    hurt 

    Draggin' 
    the sack 
    through 
    that 
    Delta 
    dirt 

    Verse 3

    And 
    I've 
    worked 
    hard 
    the 

    whole week 
    long 

    Pickin' 
    my 
    fingers 
    to 
    the 

    blood 
    and 
    bone 

    There 
    ain't 
    a lot 
    of 
    money 
    in 
    a 
    cotton 
    bale 

    At 
    least 
    when 
    you 
    try 
    to sell

    In 
    a

    One 
    dusty 
    street 
    to walk

    and 
    down 

    Nothin'

    Verse 5
    On 
    Saturday 
    nights 
    we'd 

    get 
    dressed 
    up 

    Catch 
    us 
    a 
    ride 
    on 
    a pickup 
    truck 

    On 
    a gravel 
    road, 
    it 
    nearly 
    strangled 
    us 

    That 
    cotton 
    pickin' 
    Delta 
    dust 

    Verse 6
    We'd 
    sit 
    across 
    the street 

    on 
    the 
    depot 
    porch 

    Lookin' 
    at 
    the folks 
    lookin' 

    back 
    at 
    us 

    Munchin' 
    on 
    a 
    dust 
    covered 

    ice 
    cream 
    cone 

    Wondering 
    how 
    we'd 
    get 
    back 
    home 

    From 
    a 
    Verse 7

    just 
    hang 
    around

      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 🙂

      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.
