Spread you 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 search to find wealth and fame

I hear Michael has gone and changed his name Its a year since he was here

Kentucky bluebird , fly away

And take a Message to Michael, message to Michael

Tell I miss him more each day

As his train pulled out down the track

Michael promised he'd soon be coming back Oh tell how my heart just breaks into

Since he'd journyied far

And even though his dreams of fame fell through

To me he will always be a star Spread you wings for New Orleans

Kentucky bluebird fly away

And take Message to Michael , message to Michael

Ask him to start for home today

When you see him please let him know

Rich or poor I will always love him so Fly away kentucky bluebird

Fly away kentucky bluebird, fly

Fly away kentucky bluebird

Take it, take it, home tonight

All the lights will be shining home tonight Baby come home,baby come home
