Blowin' In The Wind

Sam Cooke · The Man Who Invented Soul [1968]

How many roads must a man walk down before he's called a man

Tell me

How many seas must a white dove sail before she sleeps in the sand

Tell me

How many times must the cannon balls fly before they're forever banned

No

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind

The answer

Blowing in the wind



How many times must a man look above before he sees the sky

Tell me

How many ears must one man have before he can hear people cry

What I wanna know is how many depths will it take

'Til he knows too many people have died

Oh no

The answer my friend is blowing in the wind

The answer

Somewhere in the the wind



How many years can a mountain exist before it's washed out to the sea

Tell me

How many years can people exist before they are allowed to be free

How many times can a man turn his head

Pretending that he just doesn't see

Oh

The answer my friend

Blowing in the wind

The answer

Blowing in the wind



Blowing in the wind

Blowing in the wind

The answer

Somewhere in the wind

That answer is somewhere in the wind
