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'
G C
bring a nickel, tap your feet.
Verso 2:
C G C
Rooster hits the washboard, and people just gotta smile, Blinky thumps the
G C F C
gut bass and solos for awhile. Poor-boy twangs the rhythm out on his
G C
Kalamazoo. And Willy goes in to a dance and doubles on Kazoo.
repete refrão:

You don't need a penny just to hang around, but if you got a nickel won't
G C F C
you lay your money down. Over on the corner, there's a happy noise,

people come from all around to watch the magic boy.
