Fugees
No Woman, No Cry - Edited Album Version
WYCLEF
A dedication to all the refugees worldwide...
One time
Say, say, say

I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Brooklyn
Observing the crookedness
As it mingled with the good people we meet
Good friends we had, Good friends we've lost
Along the way
In this great future you can't forget your past
So dry your tears I say And to my peeps who passed away

No woman, no cry, no woman no cry
Say say say

Hey little sister don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Say say say

I remember when we used to rock
In a project yard in Jersey
And little Georgie would make the firelight
As stolen cars passed through the night
And then we'd hit the corner store
For Roots, paper, and brew
My drink's, my only remedy
For pain of losing family, but while I'm gone Shorty
Everything's gonna be alright, everything's gonna be alright
Fugees come to the dance tonight, everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
O everything's gonna be alright
The gun man's in the house tonight
But everything's gonna be alright

Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah

CLEF
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Hey, little sister, don't shed no tears
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 mingled with the good people we meet
Good friends we had 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
And
No woman no cry
No woman no cry say say say
Hey, little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
And to my peeps who passed away

Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
