Lyrics
Written by herb newman and stan lebowsky
(As recorded by eddy arnold, february 23, 1962)
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 wand'ring ways
And 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 Tho' I tried my best to settle down She's now alone with a broken heart
And 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 The next of kin to the wayward wind
(As recorded by patsy cline, 8/17/61)
(Chorus) Oh, the wayward wind is a restless wind A restless wind that yearns to wander And he was born the next of kin The next of kin to the wayward wind
In a lonely shack by a railroad track He spent his younger days And I guess the sound of the outward bound Made him a slave to his wand'rin ways
(Repeat chorus)
Oh, I met him there in a border town He vowed we'd never part Tho' he tried his best to settle down Now I'm alone with a broken heart
(Repeat chorus)
The next of kin to the wayward wind
