How many roads must a man walk down
Before you can call him a man ?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand ?
How many times can a cannon ball fly
Before they're forever banned ?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea ?
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free ?
How many times can a man turn his head,
And pretend that he just doesn't see ?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many times can a man look up
Before he can see the sky ?
How many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry ?
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died ?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
