Paul Simon - Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard Lyrics: The 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 What the mama saw It was against the law The mama looked down and spit on the ground Every time my name gets mentioned The papa said 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 going I’m on my way I’m taking my time But I don’t know where Goodbye to Rosie the queen of Corona Seeing me and Julio Down by the schoolyard See you, me and Julio Down by the schoolyard 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 going I’m on my way I’m taking my time But I don’t know where Goodbye to Rosie the queen of Corona See you, me and Julio Down by the schoolyard See you, me and Julio Down by the schoolyard See you, me and Julio Down by the schoolyard
