"The Wayward Wind"

GOGI GRANT

(Stan Lebowsky and Herb Newman)

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

And 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

[Instrumental Interlude]

Oh, I met him there in a border town

He vowed we'd never part

Though he tried his best to settle down

I'm now alone with a broken heart

And 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

The next of kin to the wayward wind
