Down On the Corner lyrics

[Intro]
One, two, three, four

[Verse 1]
Early in the evenin', just 'bout 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

[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 got to smile
Blinky thumps the gut bass and he solos for a while
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his Kalamazoo
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on Kazoo

[Chorus]
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
[Verse 3]
You don't need a penny just to hang around
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 just to watch the magic boy

[Chorus]
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street (Down on it, down on it)
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street (Down on the, down on the, no-no-no-no)
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
[Outro: Boomhauer]
Man, you don't go cut into, one of them— what you talkin' 'bout in them old songs, man, you gotta Poorboys down on the corner, man, more Mavericks, man, you gon'
Man, gotta understand what you're talkin' 'bout
