La da la da la da
But poison ivy, Lord'll make you itch
Late at night while you're sleepin'
You can look but you better not touch
Poison ivy, poison ivy
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch
And whooping cough can cool ya
And mumps'll make you lumpy
Late at night while you're sleepin'
She'll get you in Dutch
You're gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion
Measles make you bumpy
A common cold'll fool ya
Poison ivy comes creepin', around
Late at night while you're sleepin'
But poison ivy, Lord'll make you itch
She comes on like a rose but everybody knows
La da la da la da
The minute you start to mess around
La da la da la da
But look out man she's crazy
Poison ivy comes creepin', around
Poison ivy, poison ivy
Poison ivy, poison ivy
And chicken pox'll make you jump and twitch
And whooping cough can cool ya
A common cold'll fool ya
You're gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion
She's pretty as a daisy
Late at night while you're sleepin'
She'll really do you in
You'll be scratchin' like a hound
Poison ivy comes creepin', around
Measles make you bumpy
Poison ivy comes creepin', around
You'll be scratchin' like a hound
If you let her under your skin
And mumps'll make you lumpy
Poison ivy, poison ivy
The minute you start to mess around
