How many must a man walk down,
before you call him a man?
Yes and how many seas must a white dove sail,
before she in the sand?
Yes and how many times must the cannon balls fly,
before they're forever banned?

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind,
the answer is blowing in the wind.

How many years must a 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 must a man turn his head,
and that he just doesn't see?

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind,
the answer is blowing in the wind.

How many times must a man look up,
before he can really see the sky?
Yes and how many must one man have,
before he can hear people cry?
Yes, and how many deaths will it take till he ,
that too many people have died?

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind,
the answer is blowing in the wind.
