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)
