Oh-oh-oh-ohhhh No woman, no cry No woman, no cry No woman, no cry No woman, no cry Say, Say, Say, I remember when we used to sit In a government yard in Trenchtown Ob-ob-Observing the hypocrites As they would mingle with the good people we meet Good friends we have Oh, good friends we have lost Along the way In this great future, You can't forget your past So dry your tears, I say No woman no cry No woman no cry Little darling, don't shed no tears No woman no cry Said I remember when we use to sit In the government yard in Trenchtown And then Georgie would make the fire lights while the log wood burnin through the night Then we would cook cornmeal porridge Of which I'll share with you My feet is my only carriage And so I've got to push on through, Oh, while I'm gone Everything 's gonna be all right Everything 's gonna be all right No woman no cry No woman no cry Woman and sister Don't shed no tears No woman no cry
