No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

'Cause, 'cause, 'cause I remember

When we used to sit

In the government yard in Trenchtown

Ob-observing the hypocrites, yeah

Mingle with the good people we meet, yeah

Good friends we have had

Oh good friends we've lost along the way, yeah

In this bright future you can't forget your past

So dry your tears I say, yeah

No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry, eh, yeah

Little darling don't shed no tears

No woman, no cry

Eh, Said, said, said I remember

When we used to sit

In the government yard in Trenchtown, yeah

And then Georgie would make the fire light, I say

A log wood burning through the night

Then we would cook corn meal porridge, I say

Of which I'll share with you, yeah

My feet is my only carriage

And so I've got to push on through

But while I'm gone

Everything's going to be alright

Everything's going to be alright

Everything's going to be alright

Everything's going to be alright

Everything's going to be alright

Everything's going to be alright

Everything's going to be alright

Everything's going to be alright

So No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry, I say

Oh little, oh little darling, don't shed no tears

No woman, no cry, eh

No woman, no woman, no woman, no cry

No woman, no cry

One more time I've got to say

Oh little, little darling, please don't shed no tears

No woman, no cry
