[Verse 1]
When this old world starts getting me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space
On the roof’s the only place I know
And you just have to wish to make it so
Up on the roof (Up on the roof)

[Verse 2]
When I get home feeling tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet
I get away from that hustling crowd
And all that rat race noise down in the street
At night the stars put on a show for free
And darling, you can share it all with me

[Verse 3]
I keep tellin’ you that right smack-dab in the middle of town
I found a paradise that’s trouble-proof
So if this old world starts getting you down
There’s room enough for two
Up on the roof
Up on the roof (Come on, come on, come on, come on, come on, come on)

Come on, babe
Come on, babe
Up on the roof
Come on, babe
Come on, babe
Up on the roof

Come on, babe (Come on, baby)
Come on, babe (Ohh)
Up on the roof (Oh, up on the roof)

Come on, babe (Ohh)
Come on, babe
Up on the roof (Oh, up on the roof)

Come on, babe (Come on, baby)
Come on, babe (Come on, baby)
Up on the roof (Oh, up on the roof)

Come on, babe (Come on, baby)
Come on, babe (Yeah)
Up on the roof (Ohh)
Up on the roof
