When this old world starts a getting me down And people are just too much for me to face I'll climb way up to the top of the stairs And all my cares just drift right into space On the roof, it's peaceful as can be And there the world below don't bother me, no, no So when I come home feeling tired and beat I'll go up where the air is fresh and sweet I'll get far away from the hustling crowd And all that rat-race noise down in the street On the roof, that's the only place I know Look at the city, baby Where you just have to wish to make it so Let's go up on the roof And at night the stars they put on a show for free And, darling, you can share it all with me That's what I said, keep on telling you That right smack dab in the middle of town I found a paradise that's trouble proof And if this old world starts a getting you down There's room enough for two, up on the roof Up on the roof, up on a roof Everything is alright, everything is alright Come on But so do enter the night and climb up the stairs We can see We got the stars above and the city lights below Up on the roof, now
