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
|
but the monkey grabbed his neck and said
|
hey listen jack
|
|
straighten up and fly right, straighten up and do right
|
straighten up and fly right
|
cool down papa don't you blow your top
|
|
ain't no use in divin' what's the use in jivin?
|
straighten up and fly right
|
cool down papa don't you blow your top
|
|
the buzzard told the monkey you're choking me
|
release your hold and i will set you free
|
the monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye
|
and say
|
your story's so touching but it sounds like a lie
|
