	  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
