Lyrics
Early in the evenin', just about supper time
Over by the courthouse, they're starting to unwind
The kids on the corner, they're trying to bring you up
Willie picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willie and the Poor Boys are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Rooster hits a washboard, people just gotta smile
Blinky thumps a gut bass solo for a while
Poor Boy's playin' rhythm hand on his kalimba too
Willie goes into a dance, taps his own kazoo
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
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
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
