The Wayward Wind - 1956 Songtext
von Hank Snow

Oh, the wayward wind (the wayward wind)
Is a restless wind (a restless wind)
A restless wind
That yearns to wander

And I was born
The next of kin
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 wanderin′ ways

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 (the next of kin)
To the wayward wind

Oh, I met a girl in a border town
I vowed we'd never part
Though I tried my best to settle down
I′m now alone with a broken heart

Oh, the wayward wind (the wayward wind)
Is a restless wind (a restless wind)
A restless wind
That yearns to wander

And I was born
The next of kin
The next of kin (the next of kin)
To the wayward wind

The wayward wind (the wayward wind)
The wayward wind (the wayward wind)
The wayward wind (the wayward wind)
The wayward wind (the wayward wind)
