the mama pajama rolled outta bed
and she ran to the police station
when the papa found out he began to shout
and he started the investigation
pre
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

in a couple of days they’re gonna take me away
but the press let the story leak
when the radical priest come to get me released
we was all on the cover of newsweek
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
seein’ me and julio down by the schoolyard
