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?  And how many times must the cannon balls fly  Before they are 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 blowin' in the wind  The answer is blowin' in the wind    The answer, my friends, is blowin' in the wind  The answer is blowin' in the wind
