Lyrics: My sweet Sally died last night, I held her hand by candlelight, and in one kiss we said goodbye, in a kiss we said goodbye. Now I drive that pickup south, to the great Columbia's mouth, and to the sky I shout it out, "you let my baby die". Blue Highways are where I'm bound, I might be passing through your town, until I find a place to lay her down, a place to lay her down.
2.
Lyrics: Moonlight, it shines, so well defined, when you walk by, light breaks night sky. And I hope you're feeling better Miss Blue Moon. Since you've been gone, sweet low sad song, someday I will rise, from your blue eyes. And I hope you're feeling better Miss Blue Moon. 'Cause the sun that shines above us is for you, and the sky that lies behind it so blue

Lyrics; He said "Wait and see, nothing is, it's all to be. Follow me down the line, bring your heart, but lose your mind". They said love is blind, can it not tell time? Which way now to go? To the sea or through the snow? I won't go that far to touch your face or reach the stars. They said love is blind, can it not tell time? No more wait, no more pretend. I've got wheels I want to spin. Heart and mind dancing free. These sands of time were meant for me. They said love is blind, can it not tell time? Love tells time!

about

A bright, upbeat folk-rock collection of memorable songs - eight originals plus a cover. Smooth male/female trio harmonies float over sweet acoustic backing, with lots of fancy mandolin and guitar leads.

It began as a solo project by San Francisco songwriter Eric Beattie, wanting to record acoustic versions of some of his songs old and new. As it evolved, Eric recruited his wife Marymoore Patterson and old friend Sam Pointer to collaborate, additional songs were added, and the Hitchhiking Honeymoon trio was born. By the way, Eric built two of the guitars he and Sam use on this album.

This first album was released under their three names. By the second album "River Friend" they had adopted "Hitchhiking Honeymoon" (the title of the first album) as their band name. Eric and Sam have co-produced both albums.
