[Chorus]

Down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I said, down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

[Verse 1]

Well, early in the evening

Just about supper time

Over by the courthouse

They're starting to unwind

Four kids on the corner

Trying to bring you up

Willie picks a tune out

And he blows it on the harp

[Chorus]

I sit 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

[Verse 2]

Well, Rooster hits the washboard, and people just got to smile

Blinky thumps the gut bass and solos for a while

Poor Boy twangs the rhythm out on his Kalamazoo

Willie goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo

[Chorus]

I sit down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I sit down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

[Bridge]

Get on it, Willie

Step it out, son

How about some business right here?

[Bridge]

Now you don't need a penny

Just to come hangin' round

But if you got a nickel

Won't you lay your money down?

[Bridge]

Over on the corner

There's a happy noise

People come from all around

To watch them magic boys

[Chorus]

I said they're down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I said, down on the corner, out in the street

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

[Chorus]

I said they're down on the corner (Yeah), out in the street (How about?)

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin' (Hahaha)

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

I said, down on the corner, out in the street (Get it)

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

Bring a nickel, tap your feet

[Outro]

I love it!

I need me some fiddle, son

Come over, Willie

Down on the corner

Willie and The Poor Boys are playin'

I love it!

Down on the corner
