    We 
    sat 
    there 
    in 
    a 
    pickup 
    truck 

    Drinkin' 
    booze 
    from 
    a 
    paper 
    cup 

    Mellowed 
    out 
    and 
    a 
    -feelin' 
    nice 

    Hey, 
    Trudie 
    Mae, 

    would 
    you 
    pass 
    me the 
    ice? 

    We'd 
    make love 
    when 
    the night 
    was 
    hot 

    We 
    were 
    tough 
    boys 
    in 
    a parking 
    lot 

    Oh, 
    but you can't 
    do 
    thing

    s like 
    that 
    no more 

    The 
    folks 
    we 
    did 
    in 
    54 

    The 
    man 
    would 
    turn 
    his 
    flashlight 
    on 

    Say, 
    if y 
    'all ain't 
    married 
    now, 

    you 
    better 
    go 
    on 
    home 

    I'd 
    do my 
    be
    st 
    to 
    hide 
    the 
    cup 

    I'd 
    rather 
    go 
    home 
    than 
    be 
    locked 
    up 

    We 
    were 
    young 
    and 
    having 
    fun

    An
    d 
    it 
    ain't 
    no 
    harm, 
    Lord, 

    in 
    what 
    we've 
    done 

    But 
    you 
    can't 
    do 
    thing
    s 

    like 
    that 
    no more 

    With 
    a 
    Lord 
    we've 
    never 
    built 
    be
    fore 

    I 
    remember 
    how 
    it 
    was 

    You 
    know your 
    shade 

    when 
    you 
    first 
    noticed 
    us 

    A 
    full 
    -grown 
    bed 
    was 
    never 
    seen 

    We 
    rolled 
    the cuffs 
    up 

    on 
    our 
    faded 
    jeans 

    We'd 
    see 
    a movie 

    without 
    I 
    .D. 
    calls 

    Everything 
    folk
    s was 
    still 
    PG 

    But 
    you can't 
    do 
    thing
    s 
    like 
    that 

    no more, 
    no 
    more 

    But 
    Lord, 
    we 
    did 
    it 
    fifty 
    -four 

    Outro 1
    Yeah, 
    we 
    did 
    it fifty 
    -four

      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.
