Song lyrics

How many roads must a man walk down,
Before you call him a man?
Yes, and how many seas must a white dove sail,
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, and how many times must 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?
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,
And pretend that 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 sees 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 we know,
That too many people have died?

[2x:]
The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.


Blowin' in the Wind

How many roads must a man walk down,
Before you call him a man?
Yes, and how many seas must a white dove sail,
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, and how many times must 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?
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,
And pretend that 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 sees 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 we know,
That too many people have died?

The answer my friend is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.




Blowin' in the Wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
How many times must the cannonballs fly
Before they are forever banned?

The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind,
The answer is blowing 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 the're allowed to be free?
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?
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 blowing in the wind,
The answer is blowing in the wind.

Blowin In The Wind

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannonballs 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's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head
Pretending 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?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' 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
