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
Chorus
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys 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 a while
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out
On his kalamazoo
Willy goes into a dance
And doubles on kazoo
Chorus
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel; tap your feet
Bridge
Chorus
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys 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
Chorus
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel; tap your feet
Chorus
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel; tap your feet
Chorus
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel; tap your feet
Fade Out
Down on the corner
