CCR – Down on the Corner – 1969

Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Early in the evening, just about supper time
Over by the courthouse, they’re starting to unwind
Four kids on the corner, trying to bring you up
But if you’ve got a nickel, won’t you lay your money down?

(Chorus)
Down on the corner, there’s a happy noise
People come from all around to watch the magic boy

(Verse 2)
He can juggle fire, eatin’ razor blades
Anything you ask him, ain’t nothin’ that he’s afraid

(Chorus)
Down on the corner, there’s a happy noise
People come from all around to watch the magic boy

(Bridge)
Foreign, foreign, down, down

(Chorus)
Down on the corner, there’s a happy noise
People come from all around to watch the magic boy
Have you ever seen the rain?
Down on the corner, there’s a happy noise
People come from all around to watch the magic boy
