    Verse 1
    (Travis 
    Tritt Charlie Daniels) 


    Well she 
    was 
    born 
    in 
    a north 

    woods 
    town 

    Twenty-one 
    winters 
    winters 
    ago 

    And she 
    grew 
    tired 
    of 
    the freezing 
    cold 

    And 
    living 
    in 
    the blinding 
    snow 

    Verse 2
    But 
    this 
    girl 
    knew 
    she 
    wouldn't 

    be 
    there 
    long 

    'Cause she 
    had 
    plans 

    and 
    dream

    And she'd 
    seen 
    pictures 

    of 
    the sunshine 
    state 

    In 
    the 
    pages 
    of 
    the magazine 

    Verse 3

    So 
    she 
    waited 
    them 
    tables 
    and 

    she 
    used 
    her smile 

    Saving 
    every 
    penny 
    she can

    For 
    one-way 
    Dixie 
    Dixie 

    bound 
    Amtrak ticket 

    Headed 
    for 
    the promised 
    land 

    Verse 4
    Her 
    momma 
    and 
    daddy 

    begged 
    her 
    not 
    to 
    go 

    When 
    the 
    day 
    she 
    dreamed 
    of 
    came 

    And 
    she 
    waved 
    goodbye 

    sittin' 
    way 
    up 
    high 

    From 
    the window 
    of 
    a southbound 
    train 

    Verse 5
    Now 
    she's 
    got 
    fire 

    burnin' 
    deep 
    inside 

    Ridin' 
    on 
    a southbound 
    train 

    And 
    the 
    clickity-clack 
    of 

    of 
    that 
    railroad 
    track 

    Only 
    helps 
    to 
    fan 
    the 
    flames 

    No 
    more 
    worries, 
    no 
    more 
    cares 

    She 
    left 
    them 
    up 
    in 
    Bangor, 
    Maine 

    Now 
    she's 
    startin' 
    brand 
    new 
    life 

    Ridin' 
    on 
    a south
    bound 
    train 

    Interlude 1
    Whoa... 




    Verse 6
    She 
    said, 
    'Hello 
    sun, 

    good 
    mornin' 
    Daytona 

    You're sure 
    lookin' 
    good 
    to me 

    With 
    your 
    ocean 
    breeze 
    and 

    your tall 
    palm 
    trees 

    And 
    your southern 
    hospitality' 

    Now 
    she's 
    a knockout 
    queenie 

    in 
    a string 
    bikini 

    She's 
    drivin' 
    all 
    the 
    boys 
    in
    sane 

    And 
    this 
    all 
    started 
    with 

    a small 
    town 
    dream 

    And 
    a ticket 
    on 
    a south
    bound 
    train 

    'Cause 
    she 
    had 
    a fire 

    burnin' 
    deep 
    inside 

    Ridin' 
    on 
    a southbound 
    train 

    And 
    the 
    clickity-clack 
    of 

    of 
    that 
    railroad 
    track 

    Only 
    helps 
    to 
    fan 
    the flames 

    No 
    more 
    worries, 
    no 
    more 
    cares 

    She 
    left 
    them 
    up 
    in 
    Bangor, 
    Maine 

    Yeah 
    she 
    likes 
    the boys 
    with 

    the southern 
    drawl 

    Soakin' 
    up 
    the sunshine, 
    havin' 
    a ball 

    She'll 
    be 
    the 
    first 
    to 
    tell 
    you 

    that 
    she 
    owes 
    it 
    all 

    To ridin' 
    on 
    a southbound 
    train 

    Outro 1
    Whoa...oh...

    • 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.
