Down On The Corner Lyrics

Creedence Clearwater Revival Down On The Corner

Songwriters: Fogerty, John;

Early in the evenin' just about supper time
Over by the courthouse they're startin' to unwind
Four kids on the corner tryin' 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 Poor Boys' are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

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
And Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo

Down on the corner out in the street
'Willy And The Poor Boys' are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street
'Willy And The Poor Boys' are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

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

Down on the corner, out in the street
'Willy And The Poor Boys' are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street
'Willy And The Poor Boys' are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street
'Willy And The Poor Boys' are playin'
Bring a nickel, tap your feet

Down on the corner, out in the street
'Willy And The Poor Boys' are playin'
