Well the Mama pyjama rolled outta bed, she ran to the police station

When the Poppa found out, he began to shout, he started the investigation

It's against the law, it was against the law

What mama saw, it was against the law
Repeat chords for remaining verses
Well the Mama looked down and spat on the ground
Every time my name gets mentioned
The Poppa 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'

In a couple of days they come to take me away
When the press let the story leak
Now 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 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
