Baby It’s You/A Message to Michael
[Part I: Baby It's You]

[Intro]
Sha la, la la la la la
Sha la, la la la la la
Sha la, la la la la
Sha la la la la

[Verse 1]
It's not the way you smile that touched my heart
(Sha la la la la)
It's not the way you kiss that tears me apart

[Chorus]
Oh, many, many nights go by
I sit at home alone and cry over you
What can I do?
(Ah) Can't help myself, I said
'Cause baby, it's you (Sha la, la la la la la)
Baby, it's you (Sha la, la la la la la)
(Sha la la la la)

[Verse 2]
You should hear what they say about you
Cheat, cheat (Sha la la la la)
They say, they say you never ever ever been true
(Cheat cheat)
[Chorus]
Uh oh, it doesn't matter what they say
I know I'm gonna love you any old way
What can I do, when it's true?
(Ah) Don't want nobody, nobody
'Cause baby, it's you

[Part II: A Message to Michael]

[Verse 1]
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
And he [?] in search of wealth and fame
I hear Michael has gone and changed his name

[Bridge]
And 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'll always be a star

[Verse 2]
Spread your wings for New Orleans
Kentucky bluebird, fly away
And take a message to Michael
Message to Michael
Tell him I miss him more each day
If you find him please let him know
Rich or poor, I will always love him so
[Outro]
Fly away, Kentucky bluebird
Fly away, Kentucky bluebird
Fly away, fly away
Fly away
