When this old world starts a getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs and all my cares just drift right into space
On the roof it's peaceful as can be and there the world below don't bother me no no
So when I come home feeling tired and beat I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet
I'll get far away from the hustling crowd and all the rat-race noise down in the street
On the roof that's the only place I know look at the city baby
Where you just have to wish to make it so let's go up on the roof
And at night the stars they put on a show for free
And darling you can share it all with me that's what I said keep on telling you
That right smack dab in the middle of town  I found a paradise that's trouble-proof
And if this old world starts a getting you down there's room enough for two
Up on the roof up on the roof up on the roof
Everything is all right every thing is all right
You got the stars above and the city lights below let's go up on the roof
