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 a 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 lost   Along the way   In this great future,   You can't forget your past   So dry your tears, I seh      No woman no cry   No woman no cry   Little darling, don't shed no tears   No woman no cry      Say, Say   Said I remember when we use to sit   In the government yard in Trenchtown   And then Georgie would make the fire lights   I seh, log would burnin' through the nights   Then we would cook cornmeal porridge   Of which I'll share with you   My feet is my only carriage   And so I've got to push on through,   Oh, while I'm gone      Everything 's gonna be alright   Everything 's gonna be alright      No woman no cry   No woman no cry      I say little darlin'   Don't shed no tears   No woman no cry
