Lyrics
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man? (Call him a man)
Just how many seas must the white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand? (In the sand)
How many times must the cannonball fly
Before they're forever banned? (Forever banned)
You know the answer, my friend
Is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
How many times must a man look up
Before he sees the sky? (See the sky)
How many ears must one man have
Before he hears people cry? (People cry)
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died? (Have died)
You know 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's washed to the sea? (To the sea)
Just how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free? (To be free)
Just how many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see? (Doesn't see)
You know the answer, my friend
Is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
Before you call him a man? (Call him a man)
Just how many seas must the white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand? (In the sand)
How many times must the cannonball fly
Before they're forever banned? (Forever banned)
You know the answer, my friend
Is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
How many times must a man look up
Before he sees the sky? (See the sky)
How many ears must one man have
Before he hears people cry? (People cry)
How many deaths will it take till he knows
That too many people have died? (Have died)
You know 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's washed to the sea? (To the sea)
Just how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free? (To be free)
Just how many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see? (Doesn't see)
You know the answer, my friend
Is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
