Straighten up and fly right,

Straighten up and fly right, --

Cool down, Papa, don't you blow your top.
A6 D6 A6 Bm7-5
Ain't no use in divin', what's the use in drivin'?
A6 D6
Straighten up and fly right, --
A6 F#M E9 E7 A6
Cool down, Papa, don't you blow your top."

Release your holt and I will set you free."

The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye,
