Lyrics for The Wayward Wind

All the wayward wind is a restless wind Is a restless wind thet yearns to wander And i was born the next of kin The next of kin to the wayward wind And a lovely 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 wandering days And the wayward wind is a restless wind Is a restless wind thet yearns to wander And i was born the next of kin The next of kin to the wayward wind I met her there in a border town We vowed we'd never part Tought I tried my best to settle down Now she's alone with the broken heart And the wayward wind is a restless wind Is a restless wind thet yearns to wander And i was born the next of kin The next of kin to the wayward wind, to the wayward win
