Straighten Up And Fly Right |
The buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the air |
The monkey thought that everything was on the square |
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back |
The monkey grabbed his neck and said now listen Jack |
Straighten up and fly right |
Straighten up and fly right |
Straighten up and fly right |
Cool down papa don’t you blow your top |
Ain’t no use in jivin' |
What’s the use in divin' |
Straighten up and fly right |
Cool down papa don’t you blow your top |
The buzzard told the monkey you’re chokin' me Release your hold and I’ll set you free |
The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye |
And said your story’s touching but it sounds like a lie |
Straighten up and fly right |
Straighten up and do right |
Straighten up and fly right |
Cool down papa don’t you blow your top |
Straighten up and fly right |
Straighten up and do right |
Straighten up and fly right |
Cool down papa don’t you blow your top |
Fly right |
