Lyrics:

No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry



'Cause I remember when we used to sit

In the government yard in Trenchtown

Oba, ob-serving the hypocrites

As they would mingle with the good people we meet

Good friends we have 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



No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

Little darlin' 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

Log wood burnin' through the night

Then we would cook corn meal 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



Ev'rything's gonna be alright

Ev'rything's gonna be alright

Ev'rything's gonna be alright

Ev'rything's gonna be alright



No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

Oh, little darling, don't shed no tears

No woman, no cry



No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

Oh, my little darlin' please don't shed no tears

No woman, no cry
