Straighten Up & Fly Right Lyrics - The World Of Nat King Cole - Nat King Cole

The buzzard took the monkey for a ride in the air 

The monkey thought that everything was on a square 

The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back 

But the monkey grabbed his neck and said "Now listen Jack" 

Straighten up and fly right 

Straighten up and stay right 

Straighten up and fly right 

Cool down pappa, don't you blow your top 

Ain't no use in divin', what's the use of jivin' 

Straighten up and fly right 

Cool down pappa, don't you blow your top

The buzzard told the monkey you are chokin' me 

Release your hold and I will set you free 

The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye 

And said, "Your story's so touching but it sounds like a lie" 

Straighten up and fly right 

Straighten up and stay right 

Straighten up and fly right 

Cool down pappa, don't you blow your top
