[Verse 1]
Early on the evening, just about supper-time
Over by the courthouse, they're starting to unwind
Poor kids on the corner trying to bring you up
Willie picks a tune out and he knows they going to start
[Chorus]
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willie and the Poor Boys are playing
Bring a nickel tap your feet
[Verse 2]
Johnny hits the washboard, people just gotta smile
Robby thumbs a gut-bass and solos for a while
Poor boy brings the rhythm on his kalamazoo
And Willie goes into a dance doubles on kazoo, hey!
[Chorus][x3]
[Verse 3]
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 there's a happy noise
People come from all around to watch the magic boy
Early on the evening, just about supper-time
Over by the courthouse, they're starting to unwind
Poor kids on the corner trying to bring you up
Willie picks a tune out and he knows they going to start
[Chorus]
Down on the corner
Out in the street
Willie and the Poor Boys are playing
Bring a nickel tap your feet
[Verse 2]
Johnny hits the washboard, people just gotta smile
Robby thumbs a gut-bass and solos for a while
Poor boy brings the rhythm on his kalamazoo
And Willie goes into a dance doubles on kazoo, hey!
[Chorus][x3]
[Verse 3]
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 there's a happy noise
People come from all around to watch the magic boy
