Down on the Corner

Early in the evenin', 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 just blows it on the harp

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 in the street
Down on the corner, out in the street

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 just to watch the magic boys

Down on the corner, out in the street
Down on the corner, out in the street

Early in the evenin', 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 just blows it on the harp

Down on the corner, out in the street
Down on the corner, out in the street

Down on the corner
Willy and the Poor Boys are playin'
Down on the corner, out in the street
