ストレイトン・アップ・アンド・フライ・ライト (feat. ジョージ・ベンソン)

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 and said, "Now listen, Jack..."

Straighten up and fly right

Straighten up and stay right

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down, papa

Don't you blow your top

Ain't no use in diving

What's the use in jiving?

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down, papa

Don't you blow your top

The buzzard told the monkey you are choking 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 so touching, but it sounds just like a lie."

Straighten up and fly right

Straighten up and stay right

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down, papa

Don't you blow your top

Ain't no use in diving

What's the use in jiving?

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down, papa

Don't you blow your top

Straighten up and fly right

Straighten up and stay right

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down, papa

Don't you blow your top

Ain't no use in diving

What's the use in jiving?

Straighten up and fly right

Cool down, papa

Don't you blow your top
