She comes on like a rose And everybody knows She'll get you in dutch You can look but you'd better not touch
Poison ivy, poison ivy Well late at night when you're sleeping Poison ivy comes a creeping all 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 Well late at night when you're sleeping Poison ivy comes a creeping all around
Measles make you bumpy and mumps'll make you lumpy and chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch A common cold'll cool you but whooping cough'll fool you but poison ivy's gonna 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 Well late at night when you're sleeping Poison ivy comes a creeping all around
