Tarde en la noche mientras que usted

Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound

El sarampion te hacen baches
Y mumps'll te hacen grumos
Y pox'll pollo te hacen saltar y contraccion

Un tonto cold'll comin ya
Y la tos ferina puede ya fria
Sin embargo, la hiedra venenosa, Lord'll te hacen picar!

Vas a necesitar un oceano de locien de calamina
Se le rasguno como un perro
En el momento de empezar a perder el tiempo

Veneno iv-y-y-y-y, iv veneno-y-y-y-y

Tarde en la noche mientras que usted
esta hiedra venenosa se a'creepin 'durmiendo

Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound

Late at night while you
is 'sleeping
poison ivy a'creepin
Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound

Measles make you bumpy
And mumps'll make you lumpy
And pox'll chicken make you jump and contraction

A fool and common cold'll
And whooping cough can cool and
However, poison ivy,
Lord'll make you itch!

You will need an ocean of calamine lotion
You scratch like a dog
The time to start wasting time

Poison iv-y-y-y-y, poison iv-y-y-y-y
Late at night while you are 'sleeping
Poison ivy is a'creepin
Arou-ou-ou-ou-ou-ound
