Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard (Demo - San Francisco 2/71)
The mama pajama rolled out of bed
And she ran to the police station
When the papa found out he began to shout
And he started the investigation
It's against the law
It was against the law
What the mama saw
It was against the law
The mama looked down and spit on the ground
Everytime 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 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
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard
I need a radical priest
Come to get me released
And it's all on my videotape
[Inaudible] run out the stairs
And I made it out the fire escape
Well I'm on my way
I don't know where I'm going
Yeah, and I'm on my way
I'm taking my time, but I don't know where
Goodbye to Rosie, my radical lady
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard
See me and Julio down by the schoolyard
