No Woman No Cry

Oh-oh-oh-ohhhh

No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry


Say, Say,
Say, I remember when we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Ob-ob-Observing the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have
Oh, good friends we have 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
Little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry


Said I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
while the log wood burnin through the night
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
And so I've got to push on through,
Oh, while I'm gone

Everything 's gonna be all right
Everything 's gonna be all right

No woman no cry
No woman no cry

Woman and sister
Don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
