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 |
