Standard (EADGBE)

Chorus

Oh, 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.

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 wandering ways.

Chorus

Oh, 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 a girl in a border town..

I vowed we'd never part.

Though I tried my best to settle down..

 She's now alone with a broken heart.

Chorus

Oh, the wayward wind is a restless wind,

 a restless wind, that yearns to wander.

 And I was born the next of kin..

Outro

 the next of kin...to the wayward wind.(x2)

A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
