blowin in the wind...by bob dylan smokin

How many roads must a man walk down
Before you call him a man?
Yes, 'n' how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
Yes, 'n' how many times must the cannon balls fly
Before they're forever banned?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

How many times must a man look up
Before he can see the sky?
Yes, 'n' how many ears must one man have
Before he can hear people cry?
Yes, 'n' 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.

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea?
Yes, 'n' how many years can some people exist
Before they're allowed to be free?
Yes, 'n' how many times can a man turn his head,
Pretending he just doesn't see?
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind,
The answer is blowin' in the wind.

I agree Rapunzel. There is much truth and much to make you think in Blowin In The Wind. I didn't really discover Dylan until fairly recently. What do you think Ballad Of A Thin Man is about?

P.S. Also recently discovered The Wallflowers.

thanks so much cherub flowerforyou

thank you also... mac drinker

I am so glad that this song inspires you...:heart:

I have grown up listening to dylan
since i first heard of him,
thanks to my awesome big brother...
which was in the mid 60's,
when i was a young teen...

so, this music is so meaningful to me also

Dylans music has become such a part of me
it has been engrained
into every fiber of my being
the haunting lyrics and melodies
flowing and courses thru my veins


His music has such power & the messages
surely can speak to everyone of all ages...


I'll study and post the song
"ballad of a thin man" ....drinker
another time, mac...please okay? :wink:


:smile: i have had a long day yawn

.....:heart: .thanks blushing

flowerforyou ...love you all :heart: drinker

For many years I was blowing in the wind, it seemed that I would never find rest. Today I can sing this song knowing that the question is no longer important since I have found the answer.
