Do that 2X then that keeps repeating throughout the song with these chords

| C                     G                C
Early in the evenin' just about supper time,
                               G              C
Over by the courthouse they're starting to unwind.
F                       C
Four kids on the corner trying to bring you up
.                              G               C
Willy picks a tune out and he blows it on the harp.

CHORUS:

F           C       G          C
Down On The Corner, out in the street,
             F            C             
Willy and the Poorboys are playin'
          G              C
Bring a nickel; tap your feet.
C                              G                  C 
Rooster hits the washboard and people just got to smile,
                                G           C
Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while.
F                             C
Poorboy twangs the rhythm out on his kalamazoo.
                            G             C
Willy goes into a dance and doubles on kazoo.
CHORUSCHORUS
C                       G              C
You don't need a penny just to hang around,
                                       G             C
But if you've got a nickel, won't you lay your money down?
F                  C
Over on the corner there's a happy noise.
.                                G              C
People come from all around to watch the magic boy.

Enjoy!
