Down on the Corner Lyrics

Early in the evening 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 here in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner
Out here in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Rooster hits the washboard,
People just got to smile
Blinky thumps the gut bass and solos for a while
Poor boy twangs the rhythm out on his Kalamazoo
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo

Down on the corner
Out here in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner
Out here in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
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 here in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner
Out here in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner
Out here in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner
Out here in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
