Mamma pajama rolled out of bed
And she ran to the police station
When the pappa found out he began to shout
And the started the investigation

It's against the law
It was against the law
What the mamma saw
It was against the law

Mamma looked down and spit on the ground
Every time my name gets mentioned
Pappa said "Oh 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
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard (twice)

Whoh-hoh every couple opf days they come to take me away
But the press let the story leak
And when the radical priest come to get me released
It 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
G-g-g-goodbye to Rosie, the Queen of Corona
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard

M-m-m-me and Julio down by the schoolyard
Yeah me and Julio down by the schoolyard

(Yeah yeah yeah yeah) Me and Julio down by the schoolyard (4 times)

MOTHER AND CHILD REUNION

No I would not give you false hope
On this strange and mournful day
But the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away

Oh little darling of mine, I can't for the life of me
Remember a sadder day, I know they say to let it be
But it just don't work out that way
In the course of a lifetime runs over and over again

(repeat chorus)

Oh little darling of mine, I just can't believe it's so
Though it seems strange to say I never been laid so low
In such a mysterious way
In the course of a lifetime runs over and over again

(repeat chorus)

But the mother and child reunion
Is only a motion away
But the mother and child reunion
Is only a moment away
(twice)

Only a moment away

Yeay Oh yeah
