Up on the Roof sing and play along
When this old world starts a getting me down and people are just too much for me to face,
I'll climb way a up to the top of the stairs and all my cares just drift right into space.
On the roof it's the peaceful as can be and there the world below don't bother me.
So, when I come home feeling tired ting and beat,
I'll go ple up where the air is fresh and sweet.
I'll get far a way from the hus of tling crowds and all that ratrace noise down in the street.
On the roof that's the only place I know where you just have to wish to make it so;
So, when up on the roof.
At night the stars put on a show for free,
and, darling, you can share it all with me.
I keep atellin' you right smack dab in the middle of town I found a paradise that's troubleproof.
And if this world starts gettin' you down,
there's room enough for two up on the roof.
