Connie Smith - The Wayward Wind lyrics

THE WAYWARD WIND

Writers Herb Newman, Stan Lebowsky

(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
