Lyrics

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
