Chorus:

Oh, The Way - ward Wind, Is a rest - less wind,

A rest - less wind, That yearns to wan - der;

And I was born the next of kin,

The next of kin, To The Way - ward Wind.

 

First Verse:

In a lone - ly shack by a rail - road track,  I spent my young - er days.
And I guess the sound of the out - ward bound,  Made me a slave,

To his wand - 'rin' ways.

Second Verse:

Oh I met him there in a bor - der town,  He vowed wed nev - er part,

'Tho he tried his best to set - tle down, I'm now a - lone,

With a brok - in heart.
