No Woman no Cry

'Cause 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 have 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

No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

Little darlin' don't shed 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

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...

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

Ev'rything's gonna be alright

So, no woman, no cry

No, no woman, no woman, no cry

Oh, little darling, don't shed no tears

No woman, no cry

No woman, no woman, no woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

Oh, my little darlin' please don't shed no tears

No woman, no cry, yeah
