No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Say, Say,
Say I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Observing the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have
Oh, good friends we have lost
Along the way
In this great future,
You can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I say
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Dear little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Say, Say,
Say -- I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
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 gone
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Woman and sister
Don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
