The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

How many roads must a man walk down,

Before you call him a man?

How many seas must a white dove sail,

Before she sleeps in the sand?

Yes and how many times must cannonballs fly,

Before they're forever banned?

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

The answer is blowin' in the wind

Yes and how many years can a mountain exist,

Before it's washed to the seas (sea)

Yes and how many years can some people exist,

Before they're allowed to be free?

Yes and how many times can a man turn his head,

Pretend that he just doesn't see?

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

The answer is blowin' in the wind.

Yes and how many times must a man look up,

Before he can see the sky?

Yes and how many ears must one man have,

Before he can hear people cry?

Yes and 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
