Early in the evening just about suppertime

Johnny hits the washboard people just gotta smile
Robby thumbs a gut bass and solos for awhile
Poor boy playing rhythm on his Kalamazoo
Willy goes into a dance a doubles on Kazoo
Hey!

You dont need a penny just to hang around
But if you got 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
[Refrão] (repetir)

Down on the Corner out in the street
Willy and the poor boys are playing
bring a nickel tap your feet
[Refrão] (repetir)
