Karaoke Track: Up On The Roof by The Drifters (Druid Performance Tracks) - Karaoke Nerds

When this old world
starts 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

0n the roof
it's peaceful as can be
And there
the world below
don't bother me no

So when I come home
feelin' tired and beat
I'll go up where
the air
is fresh and sweet

I'll get far away from
the hustlin' crowd
And all that
rat race noise
down in the street

0n 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

(Instrumental break)

At night the stars
they put on a show

for free

And darlin'
you can share it
all with me
That's what I said
Keep on tellin' you

That right smack dab

in the middle of town
I've found a paradise
that's trouble proof

And if this old world
starts gettin' you
down there's
room enough for two
up on the roof

Up on the roof

Up on the roof

Whoa now

Everything is all right
Everything is all right

(Instrumental break)

Drop what you're
doin' tonight and
climb up the stairs
with me and see baby

We got the stars
above and
the city lies below
Whoa whoaeoh
Up on the roof now
