She comes on like a rose,
But 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 sleepin',
Poison Ivy comes a-creepin' around.
She's pretty as a daisy,
But look out man, she's crazy!
She'll really do you in,
If you let her get under your skin!
Poison Ivy,
Poison Ivy,
Late at night while you're sleepin',
Poison Ivy comes a-creepin' around.
Measles make you bumpy and mumps'll make you lumpy,
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch.
The common cold'll fool you,
And whoopin' cough will cool ya,
But Poison Ivy, Lawd, will make you itch!
You're gonna need an ocean,
Of calamine lotion.
You'll be scratchin' like a hound,
The minute you start to mess around!
Poison Ivy,
Poison Ivy,
Late at night while your sleepin',
Poison Ivy comes creepin' 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 whoopin' cough can cool ya,
But Poison Ivy, Lawd, will make you itch!
You're gonna need an ocean,
Of calamine lotion.
You'll be scratchin' like a hound,
The minute you start to mess around!
Poison Ivy,
Poison Ivy,
Late at night while you're sleepin',
Poison Ivy comes a-creepin' around.
