Hoogeveen (The translation)
Hoogeveen, Lageveen
where do you need to go?
They used to be farms
now only the names remain
Hoogeveen is a town in Drenthe
Lageveen named a petrol pump
to that no longer existing farm
Hoogeveen, Lageveen
where do you have to go?
Well, to both
fill up with petrol first
then to a good friend in Hoogeveen
Bye, I'm going there now
