Message to Michael - a.k.a. Message to Martha

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
