Four Shadow - Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard lyrics

rate me

The mama pajama rolled outta bed and she ran to the police station

When the papa found out, he began to shout, and they started the investigation

And 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 ev'ry time my name gets mentioned

The papa said "oy, if I ever 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

See you, 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 comes 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 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

(original song written by P. Simon)
