Say say said I remember when we used to sit
|
in the government yard in trench town
|
over over starving the hipocrites
|
and they would mingle with the good people we bring
|
good friends we've had or good friends we've lost
|
along the way
|
in this great future you can forget your past
|
so dry your tears I say....and
|
|
(chorus)
|
No woman no cry
|
No woman no cry
|
dear little darling don't shed no tears
|
No woman no cry
|
|
Say say said I remember when we used to sit
|
in the government yard in trench town
|
and then georgey would make the fire live
|
as it was like wood burning through the night
|
then we would cook oatmeal porridge
|
of which I'll share with you?
|
my feed is my only carriage
|
so i ve got to push on through
|
but while im gone i mean it
|
|
everything is gonna be alright
|
everything is gonna be alright
|
everything is gonna be alright
|
everything is gonna be alright
|
everything is gonna be alright
|
everything is gonna be alright
|
everything is gonna be alright
|
everything is gonna be alright
|
|
No woman no cry
|
No woman no cry
|
little sister don't shed no tears
|
No woman no cry
