    • Verse 1
    Young 
    man in the carriage 

    Driving 
    like he's 
    mad with 
    a pair 
    of horses 

    He borrowed 
    from 
    his dad 

    He cracks 
    his whip 
    so lively 

    Just to see 
    his lady 
    smile 

    But 
    she knows 
    he's 
    only 

    Putting 
    on 
    the style 

    Verse 2
    Oh! 
    Putting 
    on 
    the agony 

    Putting 
    on 
    the style 

    That's 
    what all 
    the young 
    folks 

    Are doing 
    all 
    the while 

    And 
    as I look 
    around 
    me 

    I'm very 
    apt 
    to smile 
    to see 

    so many 
    people 

    Putting 
    on 
    the style 

    Sweet 
    sixteen 
    goes to 
    church 

    Just 
    to see 
    the 
    boys 
    laughs 

    and 
    giggles 

    At every 
    little 
    noise 

    She turns 
    this way 
    a little 

    Then turns 
    that 
    way awhile 

    But every
    body knows 
    she's 

    Only 
    putting 
    on 
    the style 

    Verse 3
    Oh! 
    Putting 
    on 
    the agony 

    Putting 
    on 
    the style 

    That's 
    what all 
    the young 
    folks 

    Are doing 
    all 
    the while 

    And 
    as I look 
    around 
    me 

    I'm very 
    apt 
    to smile 
    to see 

    so many 
    people 

    Putting 
    on 
    the style 

    Verse 4
    Young 
    man 
    in the restaurant 
    Smokes 

    a dirty 
    pipe 
    looking 

    like 
    a pumpkin 

    That's only 
    half 
    way ripe 

    Smoking, 
    drinking, 
    chewing 

    And thinking 
    all 
    the while 

    That there 
    is nothing 
    equal 

    Than putting 
    on 
    the style 

    Verse 5
    Oh! 
    Putting 
    on 
    the agony 

    Putting 
    on

    Verse 6
    Young 
    man 
    just from 
    college 

    Makes 
    a great 
    display 

    With 
    a great 
    big 
    jawbreak 

    Which he 
    can hardly 
    say 

    It can't 
    be found 
    in Webster's 

    And won't 
    be for 
    a while 

    But every
    body knows 
    he's 
    only 

    Putting 
    on 
    the style 

    Verse 7
    Oh! 
    Putting 
    on 
    the agony 

    Putting

    to see 

    so many 
    people 

    Putting 
    on 
    the style 
    preacher 

    in the pulpit 

    Shouting 
    with all 
    his might 

    "Glory! 
    Hallelujah!" 

    Puts 
    the people 
    in 
    a fright 

    You 
    might think 
    that Satan's 
    coming 

    Up 
    and down 
    the aisle 

    But it's 
    only 
    the preacher 

    Putting 
    on 
    the style 

    Verse 8
    Putting 
    on 
    the agony 
    putting

      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 🙂

      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.
