(Play the intro part along with the verse while another guitar strums the
chords)
Early in the evening, just about supper time
I go on by the courthouse where it's startin' to unwind
Four kids on the corner tryin' to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out and he plays it on the harp
Chorus
Down on the corner out in the street
F C G C
Willy and the poor boys are playin'
C F C
Bring a nickel stamp your feet.
G C
Rooster hits the washboard, the people just gotta' smile
New kid thumbs the gut bass and solo's for a while
Poor boy twangs the rhythm out on his Kalamazoo
Willie goes into a dance and doubles on Kazoo.
Chorus
Down on the corner out in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playin'
Bring a nickel stamp your feet.
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 theres a happy bunch
People come from all aound to watch the magic boys
Chorus
Down on the corner out in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playin'
Bring a nickel stamp your feet.
