The Wayward Wind

The Wayward Wind - Tex Ritter

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

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 girl there in a border town

I vowed we'd never part

Though I tried my best to settle down

She's now I'm 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

The wayward wind
