Early in the evening, [G] just about [C] supper time,
Over by the corner, [G] they're starting [C] to unwind.
[F] Boy gets on the corner, [C] trying to bring you up,
Said he picked that tune out, [G] and he throws [C] it on.
[F] Down [C] on the corner, [G] out in the [C] street,
[F] Willie and the folks [Cm] boys are playing,
[G] Bringing Nick the [C] tappy tea.
So he hits the walk [G]-post, and people just [C] gotta smile.
Just once a duck face, [G] and solos [C] for a white [F] fang,
The rhythm's [C] high on his column of shoes.
And Willie goes into a [G] dance, and doubles [C] on the flue.
[F] Down [C] on the corner, [G] out [C] in the street,
[F] Willie and the folks [C] boys are playing,
[G] Bringing Nick the [C] tappy tea.

You don't need a penny, [G] just to [C] hang around.
But if you've got a nickel, [G] why don't you lay your [C] money down.
[F] Over on the corner, [C] there's a happy door.
People come from all [G] around to watch the [C] magic work.
