"No Woman, No Cry" lyrics

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

Said I remember when we used to sit
Inna government yard in Trenchtown
Oba-observing the hypocrites
Mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, oh, good friends we've lost
Along the way-ay-ay
In this great future, now, you can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I say

No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
Hey little darlin', don't shed no tears
No, woman, no cry

Say, say, said
Said, I remember when we used to sit
Inna government yard in Trenchtown
And little Georgie would make the fire lights
As it was log wood burning through the night
Then we would cook some cornmeal porridge, yeah
Of which I'll share with you
And my feet are my only carriage, child
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone I say

Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright, now
Everything's gonna be alright, now
Everything's gonna be alright
No, woman, no cry, yeah
Say, say

No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
Yeah, yeah, say
No, woman, no cry, yeah
No, woman, no cry
Say, say, say

Hey little, darling, yeah, don't shed no tears
No, woman, no cry
