Blinky, thumps the gut bass and solos for a while.

You don't need a penny just to hang around,
But if youve got a nickel, wont you lay your money down?
Over on the corner theres a happy noise.
People come from 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.
(chorus x 3)

There should be an added C chord to the end of the first line of each verse! But anyone who knows the song can get a good idea of that from this tab! Otherwise its perfect!
