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
