Say I remember When we used to sit In a government yard In Trenchtown
Ober - observing the 'ypocrites yeah Mingle with the good People we meet
Good friends we have oh good friends we've lost Along the way yeah! In this great future You can't forget your past So dry your tears, I say
No woman no cry No woman no cry A little sister Don't shed no tears No woman no cry
Say I remember When we used to sit In a government yard In Trenchtown
And then Georgie Would make the fire lights Logwood burnin Through the nights Then we would cook Cornmeal porridge say Of which I'll share With you yeah My feet Is my only carriage So I've got To move on through
Oh while I'm gone Everything is gonna be allright!
So no woman no cry No woman no cry O little sister Don't shed no tears No woman no cry
