No woman, no cry. 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 Trenchtown.
Oba, Observing the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet,
Good friends we had oh good friends we've lost
along the way.
In this bright future you can't forget your past
So dry your tears I say And
No woman, no cry...No woman, no cry.
Here Little darlin', don't shed no tears, No woman, no cry.
Said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown.
And then Georgie would make a firelight
As it was love would burn in through the night.
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
Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright. Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright.
Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright. Ev'ry thing's gonna be alright.
No woman, no cry...No woman, no cry.
Here Little sister, don't shed no tears, No woman, no cry.
