Blowing in the Wind
(source: "Rise Up Singing", Peter Blood and Annie Patterson, 1992.)

How many roads must a man walk down

Before they 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

Chorus:

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

The answer is blowin' in the wind

How many years can a mountain exist

Before they're washed to the sea

How many years can some people exist

Before they're allowed to be free

How many times can a man turn his head

And pretend that he just doesn't see

How many times must a man look up

Before he reaches the sky

How many ears must one man have

Before he can hear people cry

How many deaths will it take till he knows

That too many people have died
