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 must the cannonballs fly Before they are 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 The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind The answer is blowing in the wind
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 till he knows That too many people have died The answer, my friend, is blowing in the wind The answer is blowing in the wind
Someone's always coming around here trailing some new kill Says I seen your picture on a hundred dollar bill And what's a game of chance to you, to him is one Of real skill So glad to meet you Angeles Picking up the ticket shows there's money to be made Go on and lose the gamble that's the history of the trade Did you add up all the cards left to play to zero And sign up with evil Angeles Don't start me trying now u-huh u-huh u-huh Cos I'm all over it Angeles I could make you satisfied in everything you do All your 'secret wishes' could right now be coming true And be forever with my poison arms around you No one's gonna fool around with us No one's gonna fool around with us So glad to meet you Angeles
