about

Highway Blues is a tribute to all the blues men and women who came before, and worked the Delta Blues Highway. I wrote this song while touring in the USA with co-writer Barry Milan as we drove from Memphis to New Orleans.

lyrics

Highway Blues – Belle Hendrik and Barry Milan – (from the CD “Applegate Drive”)

I traveled the path of the plain
Where the true nation came
I traveled the road with my western friend
I traveled the road again

I got lost in the crossroads of Highway 49
Then I pulled into Clarksdale just to ease my mind
And I was so astounded by
The blues men and women that night

In the back streets in the bars in the railway cars
Sleeping in a dive driving a big old car
And I was so astounded by the blues men and women that night

Singing Hallelujah Singing Hallelujah...
Only one voice one song
I'll sing on Hallelujah

In the backstreets in the car got my shoes on
Who am I to think I can bring it on home
But I no I was meant to roam
Like the blues men and women that night
