Poison Ivy Lyrics - The Coasters

She comes on like a rose but everybody knows 

She'll get you in Dutch 

You can look but you better not touch 

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 

If you let her under your skin 

Poison ivy, poison ivy 

Late at night while you're sleepin' 

Poison ivy comes a-creepin' around 

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 

Poison ivy, poison ivy 

Late at night while you're sleepin' 

Poison ivy comes a-creepin' around 

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 

Poison ivy, poison ivy 

Late at night while you're sleepin' 

Poison ivy comes a-creepin' around 

La da la da la da 

La da la da la da 

La da la da la da 

La da la da la da
