Ritchie Valens - In A Turkish Town Lyrics
There across the sea waits my fair one
In a Turkish town, waiting there for me
And I know that someday we will live in love
So the mystic Turks say, from the stars up above
To my little Turkish girl in a Turkish town
To my little Turkish girl in a Turkish town
So wait there my loved one, I'm coming home
To my little Turkish girl in a Turkish town
To my little Turkish girl in a Turkish town

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLbqlYXEyLVwaUBVAShDRFPVrhmerL-rS3 this is all the songs he recorded
15 dislike from armenia
Does anybody know why he sang about Turkey? Did he have a connection to Turkey?
I fell in love with this song when i was eight. an ethereal feel unlike anything in rock and roll.
17 is not the age to die. Rest in peace.
Şuraya gelip de as bayrakları tarzı yorum yapıp kaliteyi yerle bir etmeyin.
ne alaka pacoz
cokalaka
WHO wrote the song? Why? Nothing is given about it, as credits, even on Wikipedia. What is the background of these lyrics and sentiment? What was the personal experience?
I think it's richie who wrote it this is what youtube say in description
Ya adam 17 yaşında ölüyor ve bu şarkı sözleri o kadar ilginç ki.. sevdiği kızı neden bir Türk kasabasında düşlüyor, ayrıca yıldızlarda yaşayan gizemli Türkler lafı...adam dede Korkut mu okudu ki......ruhuna saygılar...
He died he was 17 years old but better than Turkish popular young singers
R.I.P
GOOD MUSIC ERA
Imagine Jeff Buckley covering this song!!
0:51 love how that bass goes with the rythem as Ritchie sings. If it hadnt been for Bob Kiene & Del-Fi Rec. Ritchie wouldve still been alive but also wouldve never been famous for this good song
May god be with you
Çok iyi be
2016 NOBEL YAZIN ÖDÜLÜNÜ KAZANAN AMERİKALI KOŞUKÇU BOB DYLAN'IN ''KIRGIZ'' SOYADLI ANAANNESİ KAĞIZMAN İLÇESİNDENMİŞ...
--- Bob Dylan (1941) gençken Amerikalı koşukçu Ritchie Valens'in ''Bir Türk İlçesinde'' koşuğunu söylediğini yazıyor. İşte o koşuğun sözleri:
* * * BİR TÜRK İLÇESİNDE * * *
Denizin karşı kıyısında bekliyor sevdiceğim
Bir Türk ilçesinde, bekliyor benim için
Biliyorum da bir gün, birlikte yaşayıp sevişeceğiz
Yukarıda yıldızlardaki gizemli Türklerin dediği gibi...
Bekle beni, sevdiceğim, eve dönüyorum
Benim küçük Türk kızıma, bir Türk ilçesinde
Benim küçük Türk kızıma, bir Türk ilçesinde

There across the sea waits my fair loved one
In a Turkish town, waiting there for me
And I know that someday, we'll live and love
So the mystic Turks say from the stars up above
So wait there, my loved one, I'm coming home
To my little Turkish girl, in a Turkish town
To my little Turkish girl, in a Turkish town

Abdullah Yucesan ilçe değil kasaba...burada öyle denir..ikinci olarak Bob Dylan ozanın büyükbabasının annesi yani babaanne tarafı kağızmanlı fakat zimmermanlara gelin gitmedenki soyadı kirghiz diyor Dylan usta..the chronicles da.. hatta ondan onceyi de araştırmış ve Kağızman a gelmeden önce bu büyük babaannesinin anne babalarının Kağızman a İstanbul'dan göç ettiklerini öğrenmiş.. ayakkabı sepicisi ve tamiri yaparlarmış..bu meslekler turktur.deri işi yâni... büyük olasılık Rusya içinde yaşayan Türkler kimi zaman steplerden Osmanlı ya sığınıyorlardı.. başkent İstanbul'da Osmanlı hiyerarşisi bunları Kars'a yerleştirmiş olmalı..... Zimmermanlara gelince, kirghiz babaanne aşık olmalı ki isim ve soyadı değişikliği ile evleniyor... çünkü Yahudiler katıdir...filvâki Zimmermanların Hazar Türk Yahudisi olma olasılığı da vardır... onlar farklıdır çünkü musevilikleri Babil Yahudileri gibi değildir.. her neyse Zimmermanlar köklü ailedir bugün hâlâ mevcuttur..
Zimmermanlar Trabzonda iken adı anna olan kızla Rusya'ya topraklarına giderler bu Hazar Yahudisi tezini doğrular ancak Ruslar antisemitizm uygulama yapınca ordan uzaklaşarak ki çok uzaklara, Amerika'ya giderler...Bob bunu çok önemsemiştir ancak kökleri konusunda insanların önyargılı olmasından dolayı hep çekinmiş ve bunun acısını hissetmiştir..ilk albümü ve meşhur oluşu biliyorsunuz atlantic records yani Şerif Mardin iledir.. ve uzun yıllar onunla çalışmıştır..
Türk ozan ruhunu çok derinden görmek mümkündür onda...bizim eski ozanları okuyanlar bunu görürler.. bu nedenle severim kendisini... O ruh çok eski çağlardan gelir çünkü....selam olsun Anadolu ve orta Asya Türklük ruhuna...
----------^^ HAYIRLI OLSUN İMPARATOR WE LOVE YOU ..........hastasıyız dedeeeeeeeeee :)
hahahaha
There across the sea waits my fair loved one

Looks like Waylon Jennings in the background on that photo.
tomfairmusic that IS Waylon Jennings. Photo taken on Winter Dance Party tour, Jennings played bass for his friend, Buddy Holly, and also backed Valens.
I just got my Turkish Visa and flight to Istanbul. I know I'll have this song stuck in my head while I explore :D
Haha :)
Anthony Perez anytime you are wellcome
Angel Cano same as well :())
Bob Dylan, being half Turkish, used to listen to this song when he was younger.
you are both welcome in my country. we are always happy to have people visit or move here to live with us.
الاغنية لاتينية بالاساس وهي تتكلم عن فتاة سورية او لبانية من المهاجرات الى امريكا اللاتينية قبل قرن من الزمان او اكثر حينها كاننت تلك المناطق تابعة للامبراطورية العثمانية وكان اتباعها يوصفون بالترك ولا يتعلق الامر بفناة تركية كما يعتقد الاتراك المتحمسون بتعليقاتهم :)
anyone know the lyrics to this????
+wesley_349 There across the sea waits my fair loved one

To my little Turkish girl, in a Turkish town
To my little Turkish girl, in a Turkish town
As bayrakları as as as

ÖLÜRÜM TÜRKİYEM!
What a great song! I had never heard it before. It probably was not as popular as his other songs.
Ritchie had only 8 months of carreer so the songs that from movie are most popular but they are all great
Güzel şarkı pink floydun anisina isimli şarkısıyla beraber en gurur verici müzik olaylarından...
2 dislike ermenistandan :d
Pislik çıkarmanın gereği yok.
Dogru :)
+Deniz Doğan ulan bu şarkı ermeni şarkı olsa bi ermenide 2 dislike türkler dese ana bacı söverler biz türklere ne pisliğinden bahsediyorsun sen :D
Awesome music, great voice.
Sıcak tylol ile efsane olur

Bob Dylan's teenage favourites, this song.
What made him sing this song.. i wonder if hes ever been to Turkey?
Homicide Rider sadly he passed away before he could 😓
@Grease Ball Ahhh its so sad i wish he could see :(((
valens the best thanks
Thanks for posting for all to hear and discover if they've never heard it before, This is my favorite, I have it on a 45
Another talented lief cut short by tragedy. Nice to hear a song little played, but good nonetheless. I hadn't heard it for over 25 years! Too bad about Bluebirds...a REALLY good song; thanks for posting this one!
thanks..this is one of ritchies beautiful songs with his wonder filled voice...thnks ritchie, thanks bob keane, thank you all=luis
excellent song love it
This was the flip side of "That's My Little Susie," and neither side was as popular as they should have been, in my opinion.
