Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard

Mama pajama rolled out of bed, and she ran to the police station

When the papa found out he began to shout

And he started the investigation

It's against the law, it was against the law

Oh, what the mama saw, it was against the law

Mama looked down and spit on the ground

Every time my name gets mentioned

The papa say, "Oy, if I get that boy

I'm gonna stick him in the house of detention"

Well, I'm on my way

I don't know where I'm goin', I'm on my way

I'm takin' my time, but I don't know where

Goodbye to Rosie, the Queen of Corona

Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard

Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard

Whoa, in a couple of days

They come and take me away

But the press let the story leak

And when the radical priest come to get me released

We was all on the cover of Newsweek

And I'm on my way

I don't know where I'm goin', I'm on my way

I'm takin' my time, but I don't know where

Goodbye to Rosie, the Queen of Corona

Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard

Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard

Seein' me and Julio down by the schoolyard
