[CLEF:] 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,
|
O everything's gonna be alright,
|
The gun man's in the house tonight,
|
But everything's gonna be alright.
|
|
[CHORUS: Oh ah oh ah (7 times)]
|
|
[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.
|
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
|
|
[CHORUS: Oh ah oh ah (5 times)]
