lyrics or other text:
Far away places with strange sounding names;
Far away over the sea.
Those far away places with the strange sounding names are callin', callin' me.
Goin' to China or maybe Siam,
I wanna see for myself;
those far away places I've been readin' about in a book that I took from a shelf.
I start gettin' restless
Whenever I hear the whistle of a train
I pray for a day I can get underway
And look for those castles in Spain.
They call me a dreamer, maybe I am,
But I know that I'm burnin' to see,
Those far away places with the strange sounding names callin', callin' me.
