CLEF: A dedication to
all the refugees worldwide
One time say, say, say
I remember when we used to sit
o in the government yard in Brooklyn
oba Observing, the crookedness
as it mingled with the good people
we meet
Good friends we had, oh
Good friends we've lost
along the way hey
In this great future
you can't forget your past
So dry your tears I say
And to my peeps who passed Away
No woman, no cry
no woman no cry, say say say
Hey little sister don't shed no tears
No woman no cry say say say
I remember when we used to rock
in a project yard, in Jersey
And little Georgie
we'll make the firelight
As stolen cars passed through the night
And then we'd hit the corner store
for Roots, paper, and brew.. huu
My drink's my only remedy
For pain of losing family
but while I'm gone Shorty
Everything's gonna be alright
everything's gonna be alright
Fugees come to the dance tonight
and everything's gonna be alright
everything's gonna be alright
O everything's gonna be alright
The gun man's in the house tonight
But everything's gonna be alright
CHORUS: Oh ah oh ah (7 times)
No woman no cry, no woman no cry
Hey, little sister, don't shed no tears
no woman no cry say say say
I remember when we used to sit
o in a government yard, in Trenchtown
oba Observing The hypocrites
as they mingled with the good people
we meet
Good friends we had Oh
good friends we've lost
Along the way hey
In this great future
You can't forget your past
so dry your tears I say
And no woman no cry
No woman no cry say say say
Hey, little sister
don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
and to my peeps who passed away
CHORUS: Oh ah oh ah (5 times)
