Píseň: Down On The Corner

Interpret:
Creedence Clearwater Revival
Album:
Willy And The Poorboys
Early in the evenin´just about supper time, 
Over by the courthouse they´re starting to unwind.
Four kids on the corner trying 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 Poorboys 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.
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo.
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo.


Down On The Corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin´.
Bring a nickel, tap your feet.


Down On The Corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys 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 noise.
People come fro all around to watch the magic boy.


Down On The Corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin´.
Bring a nickel, tap your feet.


Down On The Corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin´.
Bring a nickel, tap your feet.


Down On The Corner, out in the street
Willy and the Poorboys are playin´.
Bring a nickel, tap your feet.
