I leave the evening, about supper time
Over by the courthouse, they're starting to unwind
Poor boy's on the corner, trying to bring you up
Willie picks a nut, and he plays it on the harp
Goes down on the corner, howdy in the street
Willie and the poor boy's a-playing, bring your nickel, doctor, pin
Rooster is the worst part, people just get to smile
Blinking past the person, he solos for a while
Poor boy goes into a rhythm, on his calamazo
Willie goes into a dance, and dabbles on caso
Down on the corner, howdy in the street
Willie and the poor boy's a-playing, bring your nickel, doctor, pin
Willie and the poor boy's a-playing, bring your nickel, doctor, pin
You don't need a penny to hang around
You've got a nickel to lay your money down
Over by the courthouse, they're starting to unwind
People coming home on the rap, you everything, majeco
Down on the corner
Howdy in the street
Willie and the poor boy's a-playing, bring your nickel, doctor, pin
Down on the corner
Howdy in the street
Willie and the poor boy's a-playing, bring your nickel, doctor, pin
Down on the corner



Howdy in the street
Willie and the poor boy's a-playing, bring your nickel, doctor, pin
