Python get query from MySQL, remove the string format

I'm currently using an example to select a variable from MySQL via Python. For this I'm using the MySQLdb import.

It all works great, I'm able to get the value from MySQL but when I print the result, it returns as:

('text',)

Is there a way to get this to just show up as 

text

The code I'm working with is:

try:
        cursor.execute("""SELECT value FROM settings WHERE name='text'""")
        results = cursor.fetchone()
        print results

Thank you!!

Python 3 :

print(results[0])

Python 2 :

print results[0]

This will take the first and only element of the tuple, which is 'text', and printing a string will just write text without quotes in the console.
