Parallel 69 Songtext
von Québec Redneck Bluegrass Project

We drove the Transcanadian highway, the highway of tears
The Alaska highway and we reached the territories
We′re getting ready for the Dumbster
We got downers and uppers
We got food, fags and booze... The trunk's full
We got food, fags and booze

Yukon road trip in a shitty Honda civic
Get a pickup truck, if you ever want to make it
If the heard of caribou, seems like following you
That means you ain′t going fast, but you're having a blast
But at the end of the story, guess you'll get there if you′re lucky
You don′t give a damn, you got a shit load of time

Hey hey you ain't gonna rush
Whooho you aint gonna hurry
Hey hey you ain′t gonna rush
Whooho you aint gonna hurry


You ain't gonna rush you ain′t gonna hurry
The gravel road's harsh but it′s a nice scenery
Your car's fucked up but you'll get there if you′re lucky
Just keep drivin′ up and you'll be there for the glory

Hey hey you ain′t gonna rush
Whooho you aint gonna hurry
Hey hey you ain't gonna rush
Whooho you aint gonna hurry

You ain′t gonna rush, you ain't gonna hurry
Your passin′ by so many, buffalos and grizzly
You ain't gonna rush, you ain't gonna hurry
Tombstone Valley, gonna spend the day

This place is meant to get fucked up
Let′s stop the car and roll up
Down in the valley, up on the mountain
Down on the whiskey, up on the cockain

Hey hey you ain′t gonna rush
Whooho you aint gonna hurry
Hey hey you ain't gonna rush
Whooho you aint gonna hurry


You ain′t gonna rush, you ain't gonna hurry
You got a gallon of scotch and you′re in good company
You can stop for a cuttle, hit that bottle
Smoke a little bowl in the artic circle

Drivin' stone, on the tundra gravel roads
Hey hey girl! Guess what′s on my mind
While we're drivin' by, parallel 69
Drivin′ stone, on the tundra gravel roads
Hey hey girl! Guess what′s on my mind
While we're drivin′ by, parallel 69

Hey hey you ain't gonna rush
Whooho you aint gonna hurry
Hey hey you ain′t gonna rush
Whooho you aint gonna hurry

You ain't gonna rush, you ain′t gonna hurry
You're savin' on gas, one thank a million miles
You′ll get there soon or latter stickin′ that sticker
On your muddy bumper... Hurray!
We survived the fuckin' Dumbster highway
