Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard

Yeah, you can count the beats!

No, that’s true! You’ve got this. And a 1,2,3,4..

Oh, Jerry!

Oops! My bad. Hit it!

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

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 going I'm on my way

I'm taking 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

I mean, I really want to be a great songwriter and write good songs.
