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