Patsy Cline - That Wonderful Someone lyrics
Written by Herb Newman and Stan Lebowsky
(As recorded by Eddy Arnold, February 23, 1962)
 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 kinPatsy Cline - That Wonderful Someone - http://motolyrics.com/patsy-cline/that-wonderful-someone-lyrics.html
 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
