Creedence Clearwater Revisited
"Down On The Corner"
Early in the evening, just about supper time
Over by the courthouse, they're starting to unwind
Four kids on the corner trying to pick you up
Willy picked a tune out then he blows it on the harp
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile
Blinky thumps the gut bass and his solo 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 playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
You don't need a penny just to hang around
But if you have 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 boys
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
Down on the corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playing
Bring a nickel, tap your feet
