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 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
Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo
[Chorus x2]
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
[Chorus x3]
