How many roads must a man walk down

Before they call him a man

How many sea must a white dove sail

Before she sleeps in the sand

How many times must those cannon balls be fired

Before they're forever banned

Oh yeah let me tell you that

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind

The answere is blowing in the wind

(Well how many years) how many years can a mountain exist

(Yeah before) before it is washed to the sea

(How many years) how many years can a man exist

(Ah before) before he's allowed to be free

(Too many years have gone by already now)

How many times can a man turn his head

(He turned his head and pretended)

He turns his head and pretends he just doesn't see

Ooh yeah you know the answer my friend is blowing in the wind

The answer is blowing in the wind

Let me tell you it's blowing (blowing) blowing (blowing) it's blowing

The answer is blowing in the wind and it's blowing

The answer is blowing in the wind
