Early in the evenin',
|
just about supper time,
|
over by the court house
|
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 smile,
|
Blinky thumps the gut bass,
|
and solos for a while.
|
Poorboy twangs the rythm out
|
on his kalamazoo
|
Willy goes into 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.
|
|
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.
