[G]Mama pajama rolled outta bed, she ran to the police st[C]ation
When the p[D]apa found out
he began to shout and started the investi[G]gation
It's against the l[D]aw, it was against the la[G]w
What what mama [D]saw, it was against the l[G]aw

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

{c:CHORUS:}
Well I'm on my wa[C]y, I don't know w[G]here I'm goin'
I'm on my [C]way, takin' my [G]time, but I d[A]on't know w[D]here
Goodbye to R[C]osie, the que[F]en of Co[G]rona

In a couple of days they come and take me away
But the press let the story leak
And when the radical priest come to get me released
We was all[G] on the c[F]over[C/E] of Newsweek .[D]..CHORUS[G][C][G][D]
See you, me and Julio down by the schoolyard

To start with the obvious, Simon was one of the giants of the folk revival scene of the 1960s and 1970s, and part of the generation of singer-songwriters and lyricists dominated by the presence of Bob Dylan and Lennon & mccartney. One the best melody masters of pop music, Simons extensive catalog and career which spans 6 decades demonstrates that he belongs in the upper echelons of rock musics greatest acts and shows that he is a consummate master of songcraft.
