Cline, Patsy - The Wayward Wind Lyrics






[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

[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

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

[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

The next of kin to the wayward wind...

    The next of kin to the way ward wind. Maybe he has ants in his pants. Or to much caffeine. Judy

    J.... S....

    Gracias la stipida.

  27. G.... N....

    Superb voice. She could really sing. Today's singer is a screecher.

  28. D.... k....

    Sam Cooke, Bing Crosby, Patsy, Nat King Cole, Elvis, Lennon and McCartney, Gene Pitney, Sinatra, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Roy Orbison, Jackie Wilson, louie Armstrong hard to believe that all of these great singers walked the Earth, at the same time, in the late 1950's. Incredible.

  29. S.... D....

    first time I've come across this - lovely I remember the song from childhood reminds me of the wide open spaces.

  30. D.... H....

    I WAS BORN IN 1951. AMEN!

    One of a kind that will not be repeated or be improved on.

    There has never been another Patsy Cline and I don't think there ever will be. She was definitely one of a kind and we were sadly robbed of her talent when she had so much to give but she goes on in spirit and her music.

    Patsy cline Jim reeves and hank Williams Sr were the best not the crap music we hear today

    Beautiful

  60. E.... H....

    Still the voice, pure

    These old songs are of my time but the young ones don't like

    A.... D....

    Adam Duddy I’m 23 and enjoy this song

  71. D.... B....

    I never considered her a 'country' singer although that's where she got her start. She always belonged in an evening gown and heels rather than the tacky country garb she used to wear starting out.

  72. H.... S....

    Beautiful Voice and Song‼️

  73. S.... B....

    Great voice & SOMEONE is always singing her songs in house & Definatatly karaoke,S ect

    It’s always a pleasure to listen to wonderful, amazing and beautiful people like this great lady.

  75. M.... J....

    Thanks for sharing this one. I'd not heard Patsy's version before. She puts sp much emotion in her singing - makes every word that much more meaninful. Especially with the teardrop in her voice!

  76. B.... G....

    Lovely, very entertaining.
