VERSE 1:
Early in the evenin - just about supper time
over by the courthouse - they're starting to unwind
Four kids on the corner - try’n to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp
CHORUS:
Down on the corner - out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin
bring a nickel, tap your feet
VERSE 2:
Rooster hits the washboard - and people just gotta smile
Blinky thumps the gut bass and - solos for a while
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out - on his Kalamazoo
an’ Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo
[REPEAT CHORUS]
[INSTRUMENTAL VERSE]
[REPEAT CHORUS]
[SEGUE]
VERSE 3:
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
[REPEAT CHORUS TWICE]
