She comes on like a rose
And everybody knows
She'll get you in Dutch
You can look but you better not touch
Poison ivy poison ivy
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison ivy comes acreeping
Around
She's pretty as a daisy
But look out man she's crazy
She'll really do you in
If you let her under your skin
Poison ivy poison ivy
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison ivy comes acreeping
Around
Measles make you bumpy
And mumps'll make you lumpy
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch
A common cold'll fool ya
And whooping cough'll cool ya
But poison ivy
Lord'll make you itch
You're gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion
You'll be scratching like a hound
The minute you start to mess around
Poison ivy poison ivy
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison ivy comes acreeping
Around
Measles make you bumpy
And mumps'll make you lumpy
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch

A common cold'll fool ya
And whooping cough'll cool ya
But poison ivy
Lord'll make you itch
You're gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion
You'll be scratching like a hound
The minute you start to mess around
Poison ivy poison ivy
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison ivy comes acreeping
Around
