Lyrics for Song: Blowin' In The Wind
Lyrics for Album: Collection [2005]
How many roads must a man walk down
Before you can call him a man ?
How many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand ?
How many times can a cannon ball 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 can a mountain exist
Before it is 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 ?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.
How many times can a man look up
Before he can see 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 ?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

While the original song is widely recognized as an anthem of the 1960s protest movement, Faithfull's version reflects her unique vocal style and the mature artistic direction she pursued in later years. Her interpretation maintains the song's contemplative tone and social commentary, showcasing her ability to reinterpret classic material through her own lens. This recording contributes to her extensive discography, which includes collaborations with artists like Paul McCartney and a diverse range of solo works spanning rock, pop, and folk genres.
