No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trent town
All the others serving, they aim for grants
Stay with me, with the good people we met
Good friends we had, oh good friends we've lost
Along the way
In this great future, you can't forget your best
So dry your tears, I say
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Here little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Then we would cook cornmeal forage
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through, what I'm gonna mean
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Here little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
