Lyrics

[00:00.636] A buzzard took a monkey for a ride in the air
[00:14.772] The monkey thought that everything was on the square
[00:17.844] The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back
[00:20.724] The monkey grabbed his neck and said
[00:22.740] "Now listen,Jack..."
[00:24.100] Straighten up and fly right
[00:26.836] Straighten up and stay right
[00:29.772] Straighten up and fly right
[00:32.732] Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top
[00:35.836] Ain't no use in divin'
[00:38.148] What's the use in jivin'?
[00:41.204] Straighten up and fly right
[00:44.111] Cool down,papa,don't you blow your top
[00:47.300] The buzzard told the monkey
[00:48.724] You are chokin'me
[00:49.852] Release your hold and I'll set you free
[00:53.203] The monkey looked the buzzard right
[00:55.044] Dead in the eye and said
[00:56.100] Your story's so touching,but it sounds
[00:58.200] Just like a lie
[00:59.515] Straighten up and fly right
[01:01.540] Straighten up and stay right
[01:04.451] Straighten up and fly right
[01:07.316] Cool down,papa,don't you blow your top
[01:10.492] Straighten up and fly right
[02:10.907] Straighten up and stay right
[02:13.690] Straighten up and fly right
[02:17.452] Cool down, papa,don't you blow your top
[02:21.083] Fly right!
