[Verse 1]
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you can call him a man?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
How many times can a cannonball fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind

[Verse 2]
How many years can a mountain exist
Before it is 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
Pretendin' he just cannot see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
How many times can a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
And how many years must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
And how many deaths will it take 'til he knows
Too many people have died?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind

[Outro]
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
The answer is blowin' in the wind
