Lyrics Simon & Garfunkel – Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard

Mama pajama rolled outta bed, she ran to the police station
When the papa found out, he began to shout, he started the investigation
And it’s against the law, it was against the law
What 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 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

Instrumental break

In a couple of days they come and take me away
But the press let the story leak
Now 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’
But I’m on my way, 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
See you, me and Julio down by the schoolyard
