Lyrics
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 cannonballs 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 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?
How many times must 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 'til he knows
That too many people have died?Demo Videos
About This Song
Blowing in the Wind is Bob Dylan's 1963 folk anthem that became a civil rights era classic. While not originally bluegrass, it's been covered by many bluegrass artists and works beautifully in the genre with its simple, powerful melody and timeless message.
