No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry
'Cause - 'cause - 'cause I remember when a we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Oba - obaserving the 'ypocrites - yeah! -
Mingle with the good people we meet, yeah!
Good friends we have, oh, good friends we have lost
Along the way, yeah!
In this great future, you can't forget your past;
So dry your tears, I seh. Yeah!
No, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry. Eh, yeah!
A little darlin', 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 lights
I seh, logwood burnin' through the nights, yeah!
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge, say
Of which I'll share with you, yeah!
My feet is my only carriage
And so I've got to push on through
Oh, while I'm gone
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right, yeah!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right-a!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right, yeah!
Everything's gonna be all right!
So no, woman, no cry;
No, woman, no cry
I seh, O little - O little darlin', 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 got to say:
O little - little darlin', please don't shed no tears;
No, woman, no cry
