[Chorus] F C G C Down on the corner, out in the street, F C G C Willy and the Poorboys are playin', bring a nickel, tap your feet. [Verse 2] C G C Rooster hits the washboard, and people just gotta smile, C G C Blinky thumps the Dutch bass and solos for a while F C Poor-boy twangs the rhythm out on his Kalamazoo. C G C And Willy goes into a dance and doubles on Kazoo. [Chorus] F C G C Down on the corner, out in the street, F C G C Willy and the Poorboys are playin', bring a nickel, tap your feet.
