Message to Michael (AKA Message to Martha) Lyrics

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 café,
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, fly away...
