How many roads must
A man walk down
Before they call him a man
How many seas must
A white dove sail
Before she sleeps
In the sand
How many times must
The cannon
Balls 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
Must 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 he
Just doesn't see
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 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
The answer is blowin'
In the wind
