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      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 and 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      La la la la   La la la la
