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 NewmanThe wayward wind is a restless windA restless wind that yearns to wanderAnd he was born the next of kinThe next of kin to the wayward windIn a lonely shack by a railroad trackHe spent his younger daysAnd I guess the sound of the outward-boundMade him a slave to his wand'rin waysAnd the wayward wind is a restless windA restless wind that yearns to wanderAnd he was born the next of kinThe next of kin to the wayward windOh I met him there in a border townHe vowed we'd never partThough he tried his best to settle downI'm now alone with a broken heartAnd the wayward wind is a restless windA restless wind that yearns to wanderAnd he was born the next of kinThe next of kin to the wayward windThe next of kin to the wayward windTranscribed by Ronald E.
