Verse

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 the cannonballs fly,

before they’re forever banned

Harmonica

Verse

Yes, and how many years can a mountain exist,

before it is washed to the 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,

and pretend that he just doesn’t see

Harmonica

Verse

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
