Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I remember when we used to sit

In a government yard in trenchtown

Over-observin' the hypocrites

As they would mingle with the good people we meet

Good friends we have, oh, good friends we've lost

Along the way, hey

In this great future

You can't forget your past

So dry your tears, I say

[Verse 2]

And, no woman no cry

No woman no cry

Oh, my little sister, don't shed no tears

No woman no cry

[Verse 3]

Say, say

I remember when we used to sit

In the government yard in Trenchtown

And then Georgie would make the fire light

As if it was log wood burnin' through the night

Then we would cook cornmeal porridge

Of which I'll share with you

You see, my feet is my only carriage

So I've got to push on through

But while I'm gone, I mean it

[Verse 4]

Everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright

Everything's gonna be alright

[Verse 5]

So woman no cry

Oh, no, no

Say it one more time, oh

No woman no cry

Oh, my little sister, you can dry your weeping eyes

No woman no cry

Ay

[Verse 6]

Little darling, don't shed no tears

No woman no cry

Little sister, don't shed no tears

No woman no cry
