C                     G                 C		
Early in the evening, just about supper time
                                G             C
Over by the courthouse, they're starting to unwind
F                        C
Four kids on the corner, trying to bring you up
                              G               C	
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp

F           C        G          C
Down on the corner - Out in the street
              F	           C 	
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
           G              C
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

C                               G                 C
Rooster hits the washboard, and people just gotta smile
                               G          C
Blinky thumps the gut bass and solos for awhile
F                              C
Poor-boy twangs the rhythm out on his Kalamazoo
                                G            C	
And Willy goes into a dance and doubles on Kazoo
 
F           C        G          C
Down on the corner - Out in the street
              F	           C 	
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
           G              C
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

C                      G             C	
You don't need a penny just to hang around
                                  G              C
But if you got a nickel won't you lay your money down
F                   C
Over on the corner, there's a happy noise
                               G               C
People come from all around to watch the magic boy

F           C        G          C
Down on the corner - Out in the street
              F	           C 	
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
           G              C
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
