No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Said said said
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in trench town
observing the hypocrites
As they would mingle
with the good people we meet
Good friends we have
oh good friends we’ve lost
Along the way
In this great future
you can’t forget your past
So dry your tears I say
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Ere little darling don’t shed no tears
No woman no cry
Said said said
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in trench town
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
As it was logwood burning through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone I mean
Everything's gonna be all right
Everything's gonna be all right
Everything's gonna be all right
Everything's gonna be all right
I said everything's gonna be all right
Everything's gonna be all right
Everything's gonna be all right now
Everything's gonna be all right
So woman no cry
No no woman woman no cry
Woman little sister don’t shed no tears
No woman no cry
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in trench town
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
As it was logwood burning through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I’ve got to push on through
But while I'm gone
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Woman little darling say don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Eh (little darling don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Little sister don’t shed no tears
No woman no cry)
