Message To Michael

Spread your wings for New Orleans

Kentucky bluebird, fly away

And take a message to Michael, message to Michael

He sings each night in some cafe

In his search to find wealth and fame

I hear Michael has gone and changed his name

It's a year since he was here

Kentucky bluebird, fly away

And take a message to Michael, message to Michael

Tell him I miss him more each day

As his train pulled out down the track

Michael promised he'd soon be coming back

Oh tell him how my heart just breaks in two

Since he journeyed far

And even though his dreams of fame fell through

To me he will always be a star

Spread your wings for New Orleans

Kentucky bluebird, fly away

And take a message to Michael, message to Michael

Ask him to start for home today

When you find him please let him know

Rich or poor, I will always love him so

Fly away, Kentucky bluebird

Fly away, Kentucky bluebird

Fly away, fly away, fly away, fly away
