[Intro]
*Clapping and cheering*

[Verse 1]
When this old world starts a-gettin' me down
And people are just too much for me to face
I'monna climb way up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares, they drift right into space

[Chorus]
Oh, on the roof, it's peaceful as can be
And there, the world below, it don't bother me
No, no, no, no

[Verse 2]
So when I come home feelin' tired and beat
I got to go up where the air is fresh and sweet for me now
I'll get far away from the hustlin' crowd
And all that rat-race noise down in the street

[Chorus]
Oh, on the roof, that's the only place that I know
Look at the city, baby
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Let's go up on my roof
[Bridge]
And at night, the stars, they put on a show for free
And darlin', you can share, share it all with me
Hear what I say, keep on tellin' you that

[Verse 3]
Right smack dab in the middle of town
Well, I found a paradise, just about trouble-proof, I know now
And if this old world starts a-gettin' you down
Well there's room enough for two

[Outro]
Up on my roof
Up on my roof
Up on my roof
You've got to come on up, bring it on up, come on up, come on up, go now, and
Drop what you're doin' tonight and climb up the stairs with me and see me
You got the stars up above us and the city lights below
No no no, no no no no, no no no no
Up on my roof, oh
Up on a roof
*Clapping and cheering*
