Letra / Lyrics
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Said, I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in TrenchTown
Observing the hypocrites
As they would,
Mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, oh good friends we've lost
Along the way
In this great future, you can't forget your past
So dry yours tears I say
And no woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Here little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Said, I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in TrenchTown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
As it was, log wood burning through the night
Then we would cook corn meal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone I mean
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright, so
Woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Woman, little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in TrenchTown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
As it was, log wood burning through the night
Then we would cook corn meal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Woman, little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Hey, here little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Here little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Said, I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in TrenchTown
Observing the hypocrites
As they would,
Mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, oh good friends we've lost
Along the way
In this great future, you can't forget your past
So dry yours tears I say
And no woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Here little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Said, I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in TrenchTown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
As it was, log wood burning through the night
Then we would cook corn meal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone I mean
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright
Ev'rything's gonna be alright, so
Woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Woman, little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in TrenchTown
And then Georgie would make the fire light
As it was, log wood burning through the night
Then we would cook corn meal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Woman, little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Hey, here little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
Here little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry
