The buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the air
The buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the air
The monkey thought that ev'rything was on the square
The monkey thought that ev'rything was on the square
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back
The monkey grabbed his neck and said, 'Now, listen, Jack
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, straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and fly right, cool down papa, don't you blow your top
Straighten up and fly right, cool down papa, don't you blow your top
Ain't no use in divin'. What's the use of jivin'?
Ain't no use in divin'. What's the use of jivin'?
Straighten up and fly right, cool down papa, don't you blow your top'
Straighten up and fly right, cool down papa, don't you blow your top'
The buzzard told the monkey, 'You're choking me
The buzzard told the monkey, 'You're choking me
Release your hold and I'll set you free'
Release your hold and I'll set you free'
The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye and said
The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye and said
'Your story's touching, but is sounds like a lie'
'Your story's touching, but is sounds like a lie'
Straighten up and fly right, straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right, straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right, cool down papa, don't you blow your top
Straighten up and fly right, cool down papa, don't you blow your top
