She's common like a rose

Everybody knows

She'll get you to look

You can look but you'd better not touch

Poison Ivy, Poison Ivy

Late at night while you're sleeping

Poison Ivy come a creeping 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

Late at night while you're sleeping

Poison Ivy come a creeping around



Measles make you bumpy

Mumps'll make you lumpy

Chicken Pox'll make you jump and twitch

Common cold'll fool you

Whooping cough'll cool you

Poison Ivy's love'll make you itch



Gonna need a notion

Calomine lotion

You'll be scratching like a hound

The minute you start to mess around



Poison Ivy, Poison Ivy

Late at night while you're sleeping

Poison Ivy come a creeping around



Measles make you bumpy

Mumps'll make you lumpy

Chicken Pox'll make you jump and twitch

Common cold'll fool you

Whooping cough'll cool you

Poison Ivy's love'll make you itch



Gonna need a notion

Calomine lotion

You'll be scratching like a hound

The minute you start to mess around



Poison Ivy, Poison Ivy

Late at night while you're sleeping

Poison Ivy come a creeping around



Late at night while you're sleeping

Poison Ivy come a creeping

Around
