- 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.
-
- First Verse:
- 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 his wandrin' ways.
-
- Second Verse:
- Oh I met him there in a
border town, He vowed we'd never part,
- 'Tho he tried his best to
settle down, I'm now alone,
- With a brokin heart.
