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
