  • Verse 1
    He 
    was sitting 
    in 
    the 
    lounge 

    of the 
    Empire 
    Hotel 

    He 
    was 
    drinking 
    for 
    diversion 

    He 
    was 
    thinking 
    for 
    himself 

    little 
    money 
    riding 
    on 
    the 
    Maple 
    Leafs 

    Along 
    comes 
    lady 
    in 
    lacy 
    sleeves 

    She 
    says 
    let 
    me 
    sit 
    down 

    You 
    know, 
    drinkin' 
    alone's 
    a shame 

    (It's a shame 
    it's 
    crying 
    shame) 

    Look at 
    those 
    jokers 

    Glued 
    to 
    that 
    damn 
    hockey 
    game 

    Hey 
    honey-you've 
    got 
    got 
    lots 
    of 
    cash 

    Bring 
    us 
    round 
    bottle 

    And 
    we'll 
    have 
    some 
    laughs 

    Gin's 
    what 
    I'm 
    drinking 

    was 
    raised 
    on 
    rob
    bery 

    Interlude 1



    Verse 2
    I'm 
    pretty 
    good 
    cook 

    Sitting 
    on 
    my 
    gro
    ceries 

    Come 
    up 
    to 
    my 
    kitchen 

    I'll 
    show 
    you 
    my 
    best 
    re
    cipe 

    try 
    and 
    try 
    but 
    can't 
    save 
    cent 

    I'm 
    up 
    after 
    midnight, 
    cooking 

    Trying 
    to 
    make 
    my 
    rent 

    I'm 
    rough 
    but 
    I'm 
    pleasin' 

    was 
    raised 
    on 
    rob
    bery 

    Interlude 2



    Verse 3
    We 
    had 
    little 
    money 
    once 

    They were 
    pushing 
    through 

    a four 
    lane 
    highway 

    Government 
    gave 
    us 
    three 

    thousand 
    dollars 

    You 
    should 
    have seen 
    it 
    fly 
    away 

    First 
    he 
    bought 
    '57 Biscayne 

    He put 
    it in 
    the ditch 

    He 
    drunk 
    up 
    all 
    the 
    rest 

    That 
    son 
    of a 
    bitch 

    His 
    blood's 
    bad 
    whiskey 

    was 
    raised 
    on 
    rob

    bery 

    Interlude 3



    Verse 4
    You 
    know 
    you ain't 
    bad 
    looking 

    I like 
    the 
    way 
    you 
    hold 
    your 
    drinks 

    Come 
    home 
    with 
    me, 
    honey 

    I ain't 
    asking 
    for 
    no 
    full 
    length 
    mink 

    Hey, 
    where 
    you going 

    Don't 
    go 
    yet 

    Your 
    glass 
    ain't 
    empty 

    and 
    we 
    just 
    met 

    You're 
    mean 
    when 
    your 
    loaded 

    was 
    raised 
    on 
    rob
    bery

    • 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

      Rose the Black Cat

      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 🙂

    • Secret weapon

      Brad

      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!!!

    • Very reliable tuner

      theNewPaul

      This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

    • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      Caleb Schafli

      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.

    • Great to tune and play

      Lynae T

      I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
