Oh, 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
In a lonely shack by a railroad track
I spent my younger days
And I guess the sound of the outward bound
Made me a slave to my wand'ring ways
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
Oh I met a girl in a border town
I vowed we'd never part
Tho' I tried my best to settle down
She's now 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
The next of kin to the wayward wind
(as recorded by patsy cline, 8/17/61)
(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
(repeat chorus)
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
(repeat chorus)
The next of kin to the wayward wind
Patsy Cline, born Virginia Patterson Hensley (1932-1963), was one of the most influential country singers in American history. Born in Virginia, Patsy began her musical career in the 1950s, singing in local venues and radio stations. Her powerful and versatile vocal talent allowed her to captivate audiences with a blend of traditional country, pop, and emotionally charged ballads. Her breakthrough came in 1961 with the single "Crazy", written by Willie Nelson, which became a country music classic and established her as one of the brightest stars in American music. Other hits include "I Fall to Pieces", "Walkin' After Midnight" and "She's Got You". Her career was tragically cut short in a plane crash in 1963 at the age of only 30. Patsy Cline left behind a lasting musical legacy, influencing generations of country and pop artists.
