DOWN ON THE CORNER
Akih
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.
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.
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.
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,
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
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
Bring a nickel; tap your feet
thanks for joining
Akih
