Lyrics
When this old world starts gettin' me down
And people are much, too much for me to take
I go right up to the top of the stairs
And all my cares just drift right into space
On the roof, the only place I know
Where you just have to wish to make it so
Up on the roof
When I get home feelin' tired and beat
I go up where the air is fresh and sweet
I get away from the hustling crowd
And all that rat-race noise down in the street
At night the stars put on a show for free
And darlin', you can share it all with me
Let's go, I keep tellin' 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
Up on the roof, up on the roof
Come on, baby, come on, baby
Up on the roof
Up on the roof
