Lyrics Blowin' In the Wind (Live/1970) - Stevie Wonder

Thank you
You know thanks to you
Since the very beginning of my career I′ve been almost around the world
And I've met a lot of people and I′ve done a lot of things
(You got away with quite a bit)
It's none of your business

Like I was saying before I was so rudely in...
Watch your hands, Jean
(Might need one later)
(Everybody gets a Christmas present)

I've got a lot of my questions answered
But there′s still a few that remain unanswered
And perhaps, by me doing this next song you′ll understand exactly what I'm talking about

How many roads must a man walk down
Before they call him a man?
And how many seas must a white dove sail
Before she sleeps in the sand?
(Oh, the sleeping sand)
And how many times must those cannon balls be fired
Before they′re forever banned?

Oh, yeah, let me tell you that
The answer, my friend, is blowin' in the wind
You know the answer is blowin′ in the wind
Oh

How many years can a mountain exist
Before it's washed to the sea, yeah?
And how many years can a man exist
Oh, before he′s allowed to be free?
And what I really wanna know is
How many times can a man turn his head
And pretend that he just doesn't see? Oh

You know the answer, my friend
(Sing it, y'all)
Is blowin′ in the wind
You know the answer is blowin′ in the wind
You know, know, know
You know the answer is blowin' in the wind

Bring the music down, won′t you?
So I can sing
The answer is blowing, oh
How many times must those cannon balls be fired?
You know the (answer is blowin' in the wind)
Hey

How many times must the little baby cry?
You sing (the answer), oh
Why don′t y'all clap your hands and sing, Stevie, yeah
Come on and say (the answer is blowin′ in the wind)

So many people have died
You know they weren't satisfied
So say the answer is
Oh, wind
Say the answer is
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa
Just say the answer is

Come on, why don't y′all put your hands together
′Cause I can't hear you sing
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Say the answer is
Maybe if you sing it loud
Maybe if, they may find the answer sooner
Oh, sing, the answer is (blowin′ in the wind)
Hey, sing it, sing

(The answer is blowin' in the wind)
Come on and sing it one more time
Sing
Sing the answer is

Come on and bring it up
Bring it up
Bring it up and we go

The answer is
Oh, whoa, oh, whoa
You know the answer
Oh, is blowing
Oh, it keeps blowing
You know, it keeps on blowing in the wind
