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 can sleep in the sand?
Yes and how many times must cannonballs fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
Yeah and how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes and how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes and 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
Yes and how many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the seas (sea)
Yes and how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes and how many times can a man turn his head
Pretend that he just don't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
