Again, if someone could send this to Nevada or tell me how I'd be thankful.

(Play the intro part along with the verse while another guitar strums the
chords)
Early in the evening, just about supper time
I go on by the courthouse where it's startin' to unwind
Four kids on the corner tryin' to bring you up
Willy picks a tune out and he plays it on the harp

Chorus
Down on the corner out in the street
   [F]Willy and the[C] poor [G]boys are pl[C]ayin'
   [C]Bring a nickel[F] stamp your fe[C]et.
      Rooste[G]r hits the washbo[C]ard, the people just gotta' smile

New kid thumbs the gut bass and solo's for a while

Poor boy twangs the rhythm out on his Kalamazoo

Willie goes into a dance and doubles on Kazoo.

Chorus
Down on the corner out in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playin'
Bring a nickel stamp your feet.

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 theres a happy bunch

People come from all aound to watch the magic boys
Chorus
Down on the corner out in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playin'
Bring a nickel stamp your feet.
