She comes on like a rose,
you can look but you better not touch
Late at night while you're sleeping,
Poison Ivy comes a creepin'
but look how mad she's crazy
if you let her get under your skin
You made it nice while you're sleeping,
boys, and now the guns are
and mumps will make you lumpy,
and chicken pox will make
A common cold will fool you,
and whooping cough can cool you, but boys,
now the Lord will make you itch
You're gonna need an ocean
You'll be scratchin' like a hound
Late at night while you're sleepin'
Poison ivy comes a -creepin'
and mumps will make you loppy,
and chicken pox will make
A common cold will fool ya,
and whooping coughs can cool ya, but brother,
now the Lord will make you itch.
You're gonna need an ocean now,
you'll be scratching like a hound now.
Late at night while you're sleeping
Poison Ivy comes a creepin' around
