The Wayward Wind

-Artist: Gogi Grant
-the # 8 song of the 1955-1959
rock era
-was # 1 for 8 weeks in 1956
-Words and Music by 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



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
