"Far Away Places" lyrics

"Far Away Places"

Far away places with strange sounding names
Far away over the sea
Those far away places with the strange sounding names are
Calling, calling me

Goin' to China or maybe Siam
I wanna see for myself
Those far away places I've been reading about in a
Book that I took from a shelf

I start getting' restless whenever I hear the whistle of a train
I pray for the day I can get underway
And look for those castles in Spain

They call me a dreamer
Well maybe I am
But I know that I'm burning to see those
Far away places with the strange sounding names
Calling, calling me
Me
