Straighten Up And Fly Right Lyrics - Marvin Gaye

Ah, the buzzard took the 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 fly right 

Straighten up and fly right 

Oh cool down, papa, don't you blow your top 

Ain't no use in divin' 

What's the use of jivin'? 

Straighten up and fly right 

Yea, cool down papa, don't you blow your top 

Well, the buzzard told the monkey, "You're chokin' 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 touching but it sounds like a lie" 

Straighten up and fly right 

Straighten up and fly right 

Straighten up and fly right 

Oh, cool down papa, baby cool down 

Well, the buzzard told the monkey, "You're chokin' me 

Release your hold and I'll set you free" 

The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye, said 

"Your story's touching but it sounds like a lie" 

Ooh, straighten up and fly right 

Straighten up, straighten up, straighten up 

Straighten up, fly right 

Papa, cool down papa, cool down 

Straighten up and fly right 

Straighten up and fly right 

Straighten up and fly right 

Oh, cool down papa, don't you blow your top 

And fly right
