No Woman, No Cry (Live at The Lyceum, London July 17, 1975)
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Said, said, said I remember when we used to sit
In a 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 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, said, said I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
And said to us, log would burnin' through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on thru, but while I'm gone I mean
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
I said, Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
So woman no cry
No, no woman
No woman no cry
Woman little sistter
Don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
And said to us, log would burnin' through the nights
And we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on thru, but while I'm gone
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Oh my little darling, I said you don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Said, said, said I remember when we used to sit
In a 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 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, said, said I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
And said to us, log would burnin' through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on thru, but while I'm gone I mean
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
I said, Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
So woman no cry
No, no woman
No woman no cry
Woman little sistter
Don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
And said to us, log would burnin' through the nights
And we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
So I've got to push on thru, but while I'm gone
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Oh my little darling, I said you don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
