Ooh ooh

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

Said said said I remember when we used to sit

In the government yard in

Trenchtown Oba- oba- serving the hypocrites

as they would mingle with the good people we meet

Good friends we've 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 and

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

Here little darling 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

as it was logwood burning through the night

Then we would cook cornmeal 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 gonna need ya

Everything is gonna be alright

Everything is gonna be alright

Everything is gonna be alright

Everything is gonna be

I said everything's gonna be alright

now everything is gonna be alright

Everything gonna be alright yeah

everything's gonna be alright

So woman no cry

No no woman woman no cry

Oh my little sister

don't shed no tears no woman no cry

I remember when we used to sit

In the government yard in Trenchtown

And then

Georgie would make the fire light

as it was

Logwood burning through the night

Then we would cook cornmeal porridge of which

I'll share with you

My fear is my only courage

so so got to push on through

but while I'm gone

No woman no cry

No woman no cry

Oh my little darling say don't shed no tears

no woman no cry
