Creedence Clearwater Revival - Down on the corner
Album: Willy and the poor boys
John Fogerty - Vocals
Doug Clifford - Washboard
Stu Cook - Washtub bass
Tom Fogerty - Guitar
Enjoy!
Early in the evenin just about supper time
Over by the courthouse theyre 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
Chorus;
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.
Chorus x2
You dont need a penny just to hang around
But if you've 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
Chorus x3

@Tunerdude94 maybe because they're not really playing? Still they are great musicians!

My life is torn,
yet my mind is made.
My thoughts alone may never be swayed.
Bless this heart underneath my skin,
and all of those that reside within.
Hold us tight, and take our fears.
And wash them away with your holy tears :)
For all those that try to bring the light of real music to youngsters, don't give up they need you!
Who else will pay their social security when they retire early?
Or is there an app for that? hahahahahahahaha :)

One of very few bands who can make a live performance sound like a studio/recorded version.

WOW! How did they get this sound from those strange instruments?
