The Wayward Wind

[Chours]
Oh, the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yerns to wonder
And I was born a next of kin
A next of kin of the wayward wind

[Verse 1]
In a lonely shack by a railroad track
I spent my younger days
And I guess the sound of the outward bound made me a slave to my wonderin' ways

[Chorus]
And the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yerns to wonder
And I was born a next of kin
A next of kin of the wayward wind

[Verse 2]
Oh, I met a girl in a part of town
I vowed we'd never part
Though I tried my best to settle down
She's now all alone with a broken heart

[Chorus]
And the wayward wind is a restless wind
A restless wind that yerns to wonder
And I was born a next of kin
A next of kin to the wayward wind

[Outro]
The next of kin to the wayward wind
The wayward wind
