Lyrics

[Intro] [Verse 1] She comes on like a rose but everybody knows She'll get you in Dutch You can look but you better not touch [Chorus] Poison ivy, poison ivy Late at night while you're sleepin' Poison ivy comes a-creepin', around [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Poison ivy, poison ivy Late at night while you're sleepin' Poison ivy comes a-creepin', around [Bridge] 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 [Verse 3] You're gonna need an ocean Of calamine lotion You'll be scratchin' like a hound The minute you start to mess around [Chorus] Poison ivy, poison ivy Late at night while you're sleepin' Poison ivy comes a-creepin' around [Bridge] 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 [Verse 3] You're gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion You'll be scratchin' like a hound The minute you start to mess around [Chorus] Poison ivy, poison ivy Late at night while you're sleepin' Poison ivy comes a-creepin', around [Outro] La da la da la da La da la da la da La da la da la da La da la da la da
