She comes on like a rose but everybody knows She'll get you in Dutch You can look but you better not touch
Poison iv-y-y-y-y, poison iv-y-y-y-y Late at night while you're sleepin' poison ivy comes a'creepin' Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound
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 iv-y-y-y-y, poison iv-y-y-y-y Late at night while you're sleepin' poison ivy comes a'creepin' Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound
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 can cool ya But poison ivy, Lord'll 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 iv-y-y-y-y, poison iv-y-y-y-y Late at night while you're sleepin' poison ivy comes a'creepin' Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound
