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, ob-serving the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we've 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
Little darling, don't she'd no tears
No woman, no cry

Said, said, said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
As it was Log wood burnin' through the night
Then we would cook corn meal 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 alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright

So woman, no cry
No, no woman, no woman, no cry
Oh my little sister, don't she'd no tears
No woman, no cry

In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
As it was, love would burn on through the night
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My fear is my only courage
So I've got to push on thru
Oh, while I'm gone

No woman no cry, no woman no cry
Oh, my little darlin' (I) said
Don't she'd no tears
No woman no cry, No woman no cry

Little darlin', don't she'd no tears
No woman no cry
Little sister, don't she'd no tears
No woman no cry
