Listen Jack.

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

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

...

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 is touching, but it sounds like a lie"

-Straighten Up And Fly Right, Nat King Cole.
