-- Verse

A The 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 he started the investig A gation
  It's against the E law, it was against the A law
  What the Mama E saw, it was against the A law

-- Verse

  The A mama looked down and spit on the ground
  Every time my name gets D mentioned
  The E papa said "Oy, if I get that boy
  I'm gonna stick him in the house of A detention"

-- Chorus

  Well I'm on my D way
  I don't know A where I'm going
  I'm on my D way
  I'm taking my A time but I h don't know E where
  Goodbye to D Rosie, the Queen of A Corona
  See you, A me and G Julio D down by the E schoolyard A D A E
  See you, A me and G Julio D down by the E schoolyard A D A E E7

-- Verse

  Whoa, in a couple of days, they come and take me away
  But the press let the story leak
  Now when the radical priest come to get me released
  We was all on the cover of Newsweek

-- Chorus

  And 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 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
