Diana Krall - Straighten Up And Fly Right lyrics

Buzzard took a monkey for a ride in the air

Monkey thought that everything was on the square

Buzzard tried to throw the monkey off of his back

But the monkey turned around and said, 'hey listen, jack!'

Straighten up and fly right

Straighten up and stay right

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down bubba, don’t you blow your top

Ain't no use in jiving

What's the use of diving

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down bubba, don’t you blow your top

Well, the buzzard told the monkey you are choking me

Release your hold and I will set you free

Monkey looked the buzzard dead in the eye and said

'Your story is so touching, but it sounds just like a lie'

So straighten up and fly right

Straighten up and stay right

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down bubba, don’t you blow your top

Well, the buzzard told the monkey you are choking me

Release your hold and I will set you free

Monkey looked the buzzard dead in the eye and said

'Your story is so touching, but it sounds just like a lie'

So straighten up and fly right

Straighten up and stay right

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down bubba, don’t you blow your top
