Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard
(A)Mama Pajama rolled out of bed
and she ran to the police (D)station
When the (E)papa found out he began to shout
and that's what started the investi(A)gation(D) (A)
But it's against the (E)law, it was against the (A)law
What the mama (E)saw, was against the (A)law
(A)Well the mama looks down and she spit on the ground
Every time my name gets mentio(D)ned
And the (E)papa says "Oy, when I get that boy
I'm gonna stick him in the house of (A)detention(D)!" (A)
And I'm on my (D)way, I don't know (A)where I'm going
I'm on my (D)way, takin' my (A)time but I (B)don't know (E)where
Goodbye to (D)Rosie, Queen of (A)Corona
See you, (A)me, and (G)Julio (D)down by the (E)school(A)yard
See you, (A)me, and (G)Julio (D)down by the (E)school(A)yard
break: D D A A D D A E D D Whistling part
A{E} E A G D E A D
(A)In a couple of days they come and take me away
But the press let the story (D)leak
And when the (E)radical priest come and get me released
We's all on the cover of (A)Newsweek.(D) (A)
And I'm on my (D)way, I don't know (A)where I'm going
I'm on my (D)way, takin' my (A)time but I (B)don't know (E)where
Goodbye to (D)Rosie, Queen of (A)Corona
See you, (A)me, and (G)Julio (D)down by the (E)school(A)yard
See you, (A)me, and (G)Julio (D)down by the (E)school(A)yard
