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?
Yes 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly 
Before they're forever banned?

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

Yes 'n' how many years can a mountain exist
Before it is 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
An' pretend that he just doesn't see?

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

Yes 'n' 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.

Gerde's Folk City, NYC - 16.apr.1962  

Dylan: This is here, it is just uh, it is uh...
 It ain't a protest song or anything like that, 'cause i don't write protest songs
 I try to make 'em, i mean, i just write 'em sort of, something to be said for somebody by somebody

How many roads must a man walk down
Before he is called a man?
An' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before he sleeps in the sand?
An' how many times must the cannon balls fly 
Before they're forever banned?

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

An' how many years must a mountain exist
Before it is washed in the sea?
An' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
An' how many times can a man turn his head
An' pretend that he just doesn't see?

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

Finjan club, MontrŽal, QuŽbec - 2.jul.1962  

Dylan: Here's one that's called "How Many Roads Must a Man Walk Down"...
Here's a song that's in sort of a set... set pattern of songs that say... 
a little more than "I love you, and you love me,
An'... let's go over to the banks of Italy
And we'll raise a half a family,
You for me, and me for me..."

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 cannon balls 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 must a mountain exist
Before it is washed to the sea?
How many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
An' how many times can a man turn his head,
An' pretend that he just doesn't see? 

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

An' how many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
An' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
An' 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.
