She comes on like a rose but everybody knows
She'll get you in Dutch
Now 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
She's pretty as a daisy but look out man she's crazy
She'll really do you in
Now if you let her under your skin
[Chorus]
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'll 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
[Chorus]
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'll 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
[Chorus]
La da la da la da [Repeat x 4]
