The Wayward Wind

In a lonesome shack by the railroad track I spent my younger days And I guess the sound of the outward bound Made me a slave To my wandering queen And the wayward wind is a restless wind A restless wind that yearns to wander And I was born next of kin The next of kin to the wayward wind I met her down in a border town we swore we'd never part Though I tried my best to settle down now she's all 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 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, wayward wind --- The Wayward Wind - The Waterboys
