[bad word] on like a rose 
and everybody knows
She’ll get you in dutch 
you can look but you’d better not touch
Poison ivy, poison ivy
Well late at night when you’re sleeping
Poison [bad word] a creeping all 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
Well late at night when you’re sleeping
Poison [bad word] a creeping all around

Measles make you bumpy 
and mumps’ll make you lumpy
and chicken pox’ll make you jump and twitch
 [bad word] cold’ll cool you 
but whooping cough’ll fool you
but poison ivy’s gonna make you itch

You’re gonna need an ocean 
of calamine lotion
You’ll be scratching like a hound 
the minute you start to mess around
Poison ivy, poison ivy
Well late at night when you’re sleeping
Poison [bad word] a creeping all around

Measles make you bumpy 
and mumps’ll make you lumpy
and chicken pox’ll make you jump and twitch
 [bad word] cold’ll cool you 
and whooping cough’ll fool you
but poison ivy’s gonna make you itch

You’re gonna need an ocean
of calamine lotion
You’ll be scratching like a hound
the minute you start to mess around
Poison ivy, poison ivy
Well late at night when you’re sleeping
Poison [bad word] a creeping all around
