    • Verse 1
    Big 
    cloud caught 
    a 
    pipe of good 
    tea, man's 

    shirt blew on 
    the 
    railroad rail. 

    The old 
    puff horse was 
    just 
    pullin' through, 

    and a man 
    wore a pink 
    late 
    -river. 

    I'm on the 
    farm where 
    the 
    hobo was 
    run, 

    the air brakes 
    would boot 
    each other. 

    Oh, 
    I don't 
    care, 
    there's no place 
    there. 

    I don't 
    think it 
    even matter
    s. 

    My clothes 
    blazin' 
    through, and my 
    clothes and 
    skin blazin' 
    through, 

    and 
    my clothes 
    are 
    in two, and 
    my skin's 
    blazin' through, 
    and my clothes 
    in tatter
    s. 

    And 
    the railroad 
    looked like 
    a 

    wild hill 
    of 
    lad
    ders. 

    One shoe 
    fell on 
    the 
    gravel, 

    one 
    stick poked 
    down. 

    Grave 
    age fell 
    down 
    a 
    pair of 
    ears. 

    An eagle 
    shined 
    through 

    my whole 
    watch 
    pocket. 

    The 
    young girl, 
    baby 
    girl, 
    passed me 
    by in tears, 

    and a jackrabbit 
    raised 
    his folded 
    ears. 

    A 
    beau
    tiful sagebrush 
    jackrabbit, 

    and 
    an oriole 
    sang like an orange, 

    His 
    breast full 
    of worms, 

    and his 
    tail clawed 
    the evening 
    like 
    a 
    hammer. 

    And 
    my rain 
    can 
    caught me a cup 
    of water, 

    and 
    his wings 
    took air 
    like a 
    bomber. 

    Oh, when I got 
    into town, 
    I 
    jogged 
    now. 

    Ah, 
    your horse, 
    I'll 
    fodder, 
    I'm 
    a roundhouse 
    man, 

    I once was 
    your 
    father, 

    Come little 
    one, 
    with your 
    little dimple 
    fingers, 

    gimme one, 

    And 
    I'll buy 
    you a 
    cherry phosphate, 

    Take 
    you down 
    to the 

    foaming brine 
    and 
    water, 

    An
    d show 
    you the one 
    who tips on 
    the goddess 
    with a 
    pull -out full 
    sail, 

    at
    tempting 
    to weigh your 
    pig -legged 
    father. 

    I'm 
    the roundhouse 
    man, 

    I 
    once was 
    your father
    . 

    I 
    was 

    Shanghai, 
    my 
    hi -hat 
    fever, 

    mustache man, 
    and 
    his pirate 
    friend. 

    I 
    woke up 
    in 
    vomiting 
    beer 
    in a 
    banana 
    bin 

    with 
    a 
    soft glass 
    with brown 
    skin. 

    Born 
    me seven 
    babies with 
    snap
    ping black 

    eyes 
    an
    d beautiful 
    emmy skin. 

    And here 
    it is, 
    I'm with you 
    my daughter. 

    30 
    years 
    away can 
    make 
    a seaman's 
    eyes, 

    a roundhouse 
    man's 
    eyes, 

    flow 
    out water, 
    salt 
    water.

      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

      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 🙂

      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.
