The Drifters

When this old world starts getting me down<br /> And people are just too much for me to face<br /> I climb way up to the top of the stairs<br /> And all my cares just drift right into space<br /> On the roof, it's peaceful as can be<br /> And there the world below can't bother me<br /> Let me tell you nowWhen I come home feelin' tired and beat<br /> I go up where the air is fresh and sweet (up on the roof)<br /> I get away from the hustling crowd<br /> And all that rat-race noise down in the street (up on the roof)<br /> On the roof, the only place I know<br /> Where you just have to wish to make it so<br /> Let's go up on the roof (up on the roof)At night the stars put on a show for free<br /> And, darling, you can share it all with meI keep a-tellin' youRight smack dab in the middle of town<br /> I've found a paradise that's trouble proof (up on the roof)<br /> And if this world starts getting you down<br /> There's room enough for two<br /> Up on the roof (up on the roof)<br /> Up on the roo-oo-oof (up on the roof)<br /> Oh, come on, baby (up on the roof)<br /> Oh, come on, honey (up on the roof)Everything is all right (up on the roof)<br /> <br /> Songwriters<br /> CAROLE KING, GERRY GOFFINPublished by<br /> Lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC Song Discussions is protected by U.S. Patent 9401941.
