Down on the Corner

Down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I said, down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Well, 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

Willie picks a tune out

And he blows it on the heart

I sit down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Well, Rooster hits the washboard, and 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

I sit down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I sit down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Get on it, Willie

Step it out, son

How about some business right here?

Now you don't need a penny

Just to come hangin' round

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 them magic boys

I said they're down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I said, down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I said they're down on the corner (yeah), out in the street (how about?)

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin' (hahaha)

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I said, down on the corner, out in the street (get it)

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I love it!

I need me some fiddle son

Come over, Willie

Down on the corner

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

I love it!
