[Chorus]
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry

[Verse 1]
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba, observing the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have had, oh, good friends we've lost along the way
In this bright future you can't forget your past
So dry your tears I say

[Chorus]
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry

[Verse 2]
I said, I said, I said I remember, yeah yeah, when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
Log wood burnin' through the night
Then we would cook corn meal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet are my only carriage
And so I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone now
[Chorus]
No woman, no cry (everything's going to be alright)
No woman, no cry (everything's going to be alright)
No woman, no cry (everything's going to be alright)
No woman, no cry (everything's going to be alright)
Yeah, yeah, yeah

No woman, no cry (little darling, don't shed no tears)
No woman, no cry (oh, little darling, don't shed no tears)
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
