No woman, no cry

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 - obaserving the ypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet.
Good friends we have, oh, good friends weve lost
Along the way.
In this great future, you cant forget your past
So dry your tears, i seh.

No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry.
Ere, little darlin, dont shed no tears:
No, woman, no cry.

Said - said - said: i remember when-a we used to sit
In the government yard in trenchtown.
And then georgie would make the fire lights,
As it was logwood burnin through the nights.
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge,
Of which ill share with you
My feet is my only carriage,
So ive got to push on through.
But while im gone, i mean:
Everythings gonna be all right!
Everythings gonna be all right!
Everythings gonna be all right!
Everythings gonna be all right!
I said, everythings gonna be all right-a!
Everythings gonna be all right!
Everythings gonna be all right, now!
Everythings gonna be all right!

So, woman, no cry
No - no, woman - woman, no cry.
Woman, little sister, dont shed no tears
No, woman, no cry.
