Spread your wings for new orleans
Kentucky bluebird, fly away

And take a message to martha, message to martha
She sings each night in some cafe
In her search to find wealth and fame
I hear martha has gone and changed her name

It's a year since she was here
Kentucky bluebird, fly away

And take a message to martha, message to martha
Tell her I miss her more each day
As her train pulled out down the track
Martha promised she'd soon be coming back
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/burt+bacharach/kentucky+bluebird_10053686.html ]
Oh tell her how my heart just breaks, in two
Since she journeyed far
And even though her dreams of fame fell through
To me she will always be a star

Spread your wings for new orleans
Kentucky bluebird, fly away

And take a message to martha, message to martha
Ask her to start for home today
When you find her please let her know
Rich or poor, I will always love her so

Fly away, kentucky bluebird
Fly away, kentucky bluebird
Fly away, fly away, fly away, fly away...
