Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Das den dj Paul Elstak, jonguh!
Ey, wa hoor ik daar nou, jonguh
I wanna see a rainbow high in the sky
I wanna see you and me-
Hey, das een ander nummer
Turbo!
Turbo!
Turbo, jonguh!
Turbo, turbo, going fast
Hyperspeed, we never rest
Rainbow in the sky
We're feeling free
Take you to the promised land
Where life is like a turbo dance
Just come along
And rave with me
Turbo! (2X)
Hey kutwout
Hedde gij zin om te rennen, of wa?

-Maaskantje, bij den Dungen, weet je wel?
NIEMAND KOMT AAN MAASKANTJE!
Hey, Paul, jonguh, kut
Gooit die turbo d'r 's in dan

Turbo, turbo, going fast
Hyperspeed, we never rest
Rainbow in the sky
We're feeling free
Take you to the promised land
Where life is like a turbo dance
Just come along
And rave with me
New Kids 'till eternity
Turbo!
