Nat King Cole - Straighten Up And Fly Right lyrics

A buzzard took a 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 & said,
"Now listen, Jack..."

Straighten up & fly right,
Straighten up & stay right
Straighten up & fly right
Cool down, papa, don´t you blow your top.
Aint no use in divin´,
What´s the use in jivin´?
Straighten up & fly right
Cool down, papa, don´t you blow your top.

The buzzard told the monkey,
You´re chokin´ me.
Release your hold & I will set you free.
The monkey looked the buzzard right
dead in the eye & said,
Your story´s so touching, but it sounds
just like a lie.

Straighten up & fly right
Straighten up & stay right
Straighten up & fly right
Cool down, papa, don´t you blow your top.

Straighten up & fly right
Straighten up & stay right
Straighten up & fly right
Cool down, papa, don´t you blow your top.

Aint no use in divin´
Aint no good in jivin´
Straighten up & fly right
Cool down, papa, don´t you blow - your - top.

Fly right!
