Lyrics The Wayward Wind - Slim Whitman

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 wand'ring ways

Oh, the wayward wind (wayward wind), is the restless wind (restless wind)
A restless wind (restless wind) that yearns to wander
And I was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind (wayward wind)

I met a girl in a border town
I vowed we'd never part
Though I tried my best to settle down
Now I'm alone with a broken heart

And the wayward wind (wayward wind), is the restless wind (restless wind)
A restless wind (restless wind) that yearns to wander
And I was born the next of kin
The next of kin to the wayward wind (wayward wind)

(Wayward wind)
(wayward wind)
