Down On The Corner

Early in the evenin' Just about supper time Over by the courthouse They're startin' to unwind Four kids on the corner Tryin' 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 poorboys are playin' Bring a nickel, tap your feet Rooster hits the washboard People just gotta smile Blinky thumps a gut bass And solos for a while Poorboy twangs the rhythm out On his kalamazoo And Willy goes into a dance Doubles on kazoo Down on the corner Out in the street Willy and the poorboys are playin' Bring a nickel, tap your feet 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 Down on the corner Out in the street Willy and the poorboys are playin' Bring a nickel, tap your feet Down on the corner Out in the street Willy and the poorboys are playin' Bring a nickel, tap your feet Down on the corner Out in the street Willy and the poorboys are playin' Bring a nickel, tap your feet Down on the corner Out in the street
