Down On The Corner

Early in the evening, just about supper time

Over by the courthouse, they're startin' to unwind

Four kids on the corner, tryin' to bring you up

Willie picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp

Down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and the poor boy's are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Rooster hits the wash board, people just got to smile

Blinky thumps the gut-bass and he solos for a while

Poor boy twangs the rhythm out, on his Kalamazoo

Willie goes into a dance and he doubles on kazoo

Down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and the poor boy's are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

You don't need a penny, just to hang around

But if you 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

Willie and the poor boy's are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street

Poor boy's are playin', nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street

Poor boy's are playin', nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and the poor boy's are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and the poor boy's are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet
