The Wayward Wind

In the lonely shack by the railroad track

I spent my younger days

And I guess the sound of the outward bound

Made me a slave to my wanderin' waysAnd the wayward wind is a restless wind

A restless wind that yearns to wander

And I was born the next of kin

The next of kin to the wayward windOh, I met him down in the border town

He vowed we'd never part

Though he tried his best to settle down

Now I'm all alone with a broken heartAnd the wayward wind is a restless wind

A restless wind that yearns to wander

And I was born the next of kin

The next of kin to the wayward windAnd the wayward wind is a restless wind

A restless wind that yearns to wander

And I was born the next of kin

The next of kin to the wayward windThe next of kin

To the wayward wind
