Wayward Wind lyrics

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' ways.

And 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 wind.

Oh, 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 heart.

And 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 wind.

And 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 wind.

The next of kin

to the wayward wind.
