Far Away Places Lyrics

(Alex Kramer, Joan Whitney)

Spoken:

When I was a kid, one of the first talent contests I entered was in Plumerville, Arkansas. I got two votes. Maybe is was my selection of material. This is it, I guess the first... one of the first songs, I ever sang in public, except of the times I sang in school, I don't remember what the first song I sang in public in school. But this is the first when I ever sang for an audience, a critical audience... hm, Boy, how critical

Sung:

Those far away places with strange-soundin' names
Far away over the sea
Those far away places with the strange-soundin' names
Are callin', callin' me

I start gettin' restless whenever I hear
The whistle of a train
I pray for the day, I can get under way
And look for those castles in Spain

They called me a dreamer, well maybe, I am
But I know that I'm longin' to see
Those far away places with the strange-soundin' names
Callin', callin' me

Callin', callin' me
