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 a cannonball fly,
Before they're forever banned?
Chorus
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 they're allowed to be free?
How many times can a man turn his head,
And pretend that he just doesn't see?
Chorus
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, 'til he knows,
That too many people have died?
Chorus
Writer(s): Bob Dylan
