I left Cape Breton on the coal boat for St. John's, Newfoundland|And I met a little girl named Sally|And I took her by the little white hand|She shook her little head and said 'No way Fred'|I won't go along with your plan|You been working on the coal boat b'y|And you're nutin' but a dirty old man|You been working on the coal boat b'y|And you're nutin' but a dirty old man||Spoken:|Well I had to think of somethin' real fast ya know||Yeah well I'm gonna quit the dirty coal boat|I wanna live in Newfoundland|I'll buy a suit and get married|Put a ring upon your little white hand||She nodded her head and said 'Okay Fred'|Sally went along with the plan|But I'm still working on the coal boat b'y|and I'm nutin' but a dirty old man|I'm still working on the coal boat b'y|and I'm nutin' but a dirty old man||It was sometime later on the coal boat|I got a little letter from home|Sally said Freddy was a good boy|But the little beggar wanted to roam|She said it's too bad ya got him for a dad||And I hope that ya feel real grand|He's gone working on the coal boat b'y|To be just like his dirty old man|He's gone workin on the coal boat b'y|To be just like his dirty old man||Well I left Cape Breton on the coal boat for St. John's,

Newfoundland|And good old Sally was a waitin' and I took he by the little white hand|She shook her little head and said no way Fred|I won't go along wit your plan|You ain't gonna quit the coal boat b'y|Cause I loves ya, you dirty old man|You ain't gonna quit the coal boat b'y|Cause I loves ya, you dirty old man||So come on all young fellers on the coal boat|I hope your gonna understand|If you got a perty little girlfriend|And ya take her by the little white hand|If she turns her back and says 'No way Jack'|I won't go along wit your plan|Just keep workin' on the coal boat b'y|If ya wants to be a dirty old man|Just keep on working on the coal boat b'y|And you'll be nutin' but a dirty old man||

  • 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.
