WET WILLIE
"Street Corner Serenade"
(Duke, Jimmy Hall, Marshall Smith)

Down on the corner back in my home town
Me and the fellows used to gather round
We sang a song with a happy beat
I can still hear that harmony

When we sang de de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Yeah, yeah
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa

Guido, he's the one that sang down low
Crazy Johnny was a baritone
I'm the one who took the lead
And Little Jackie made our song complete

When he sang de de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Make me feel all right)
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Oh, yeah, yeah)
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Come on, sing it now)
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa

When a pretty girl would come strolling by
We'd try so hard to catch her eye
When she stopped to check us out
That's when we really sing it out loud

Like this:
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Make me feel all right)
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Oh, yeah, yeah)
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Come on, sing it now)
De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa

I still think about those happy days
And our street corner serenade
Maybe someday we'll get together again
Down on the corner, me and my old friends

We'll sing de de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Make me feel all right)

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(We could sing all night)

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Come on, sing it with me)

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Come on and feel all right)

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Come on people, now)

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Come on and feel all right)

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Yeah yeah

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
I can sing all night

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
Yeah

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa

De de de de deet
Whoa, whoa, whoa
