The Wayward Wind

[Verse 1]
In a lonesome tag 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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
Well, I met her down in a border town
I swore, it won my heart
Though we tried our best to settle down
Now she's far away with a broken heart

[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
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

[Outro]
The next of kin to the wayward wind
Thanks a lot
Thanks to Joey
We appreciate that
It always sounds good to us here
You know we've never had that sort of a luxury
And we do appreciate it
