Down On The Corner

Early in the evenin
Just about supper time
Over by the courthouse
they're starting to unwind
Four kids on the corner
trying to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out
and he blows it on the harp
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poor boys are playin
Bring a nickel tap your feet
Rooster hits the washboard and
people just got to smile
Blinky thumps the gut bass
and solos for awhile
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out
on his kalamazoo
Willy goes in to a dance
and doubles on kazoo
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poor boys are playin
Bring a nickel tap'  your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poor boys are playin
Bring a nickel tap' your feet
You don't need a penny
just to hang around
But if you've got a nickel
won't you lay your money down?
Over on the corner
there's a happy noise
People come from all around
to watch the magic boy
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poor boys are playin
Bring a nickel tap' your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poor boys are playin
Bring a nickel tap' your feet
