SONG TITLES and SONGS about DISTANCES & TRAVEL
I'll try to get this topic started with these song titles about DISTANCES/TRAVELING ...........
*Travelin' Man Ricky Nelson which made it to #1 in 1961
*I Ran (So Far Away) Flock of Seagulls
For a different approach, songs about DISTANCES/TRAVELING...........
*Walk Away Renee' The Left Banke
*Ferry Across The Mersey Gerry & The Pacemakers
Uh, I am sorry if I led off with songs which you may have wanted to post here. How about this....wait a while and then post it....or post it now ! You see, repetition is OKAY
Please understand, there's lots of freedom and latitude with this topic. Be creative....let's have plenty of laughs and plenty of wows like: "Wow, I wish I had thought of that one!!" "Wow, that's a good one!!

Travelin' Boy - Rumer https://youtu.be/wGMJoEpv7UM
For any of you who have not discovered this woman, give her a listen. And, if you think she sounds like Karen Carpenter, keep listening to her. You will hear the differences. Very talented lady.

@ripvanwinkle96 If we are going in that direction, with Herb and his lads, how about:
Casino Royale - Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass (France)
By the way, some guy named Burt Bacharach wrote this.

Used to hear that song sitting in the back of our station wagon back when I was 10. Never knew the name of the singer & title til now. I really liked country music prior to around 68'. After that every now and then a good song would come along, but nothing like the 50's and early 60's. I mean to my opinion, which don't mean diddely squat I reckon.
{Here Comes The} Express * B.T. Express
