No Woman No Cry
I will and recall
Boy
Yeah yeah
No woman no
Oh nah nah nah nah
How would ya feel if a man kill ya mudda and ya sistah?
No investigation, never whisper
'Bout who don di rape or di kidnapping
Don't even have a clue, who do di murder
Dem tell mi is di time of de master
Time heal pain, time nuh heal anger
But fi mi family mi haffi stay stronger
Mi put mi arm around me daughter
Haffi nuh run now kid
Come on little sister, don't shed no tears
We have to find the perpetrator, no matter how many years
Women is da life that you giving to da kids that you having
That make the future so clear
But it's the choice dat dey making and the friends that they keepin'
That make di evil out der
But anyway
No woman no cry (No woman, no woman, no no)
Too much woman dem die (Everyday, everyday)
No woman no cry (No woman, no woman, no woman no)
Too much woman dem die
Every black monday
Through months and fears, my mudda cried tears
But nobody cares, so open up ya ears
Listen, too much woman ah missing
Man ah take 'way baby before dem even christened
It sick me when dem touch or kick
Then the female dem catch 'em
Are ya jesta or no?
Wi ready feel da real dem
Lock 'em up, jail 'em, nuh let dem get no deal dem
Run ah kya high kaa in course He a trail dem
Just another day, just another day
Another young girl don run away
Just another day, just another day
Another baby mudda don cry
Woman killer, woman killer, woman killer
Dem paedophile and da raper dem
Woman killer, woman killer, woman killer
Dem hell mi, mek wi rid of dem
A debt do passed away, adult ya local youth
Onto da man who tell di local gyal she cute
Full time mi deh haffi tellin' her de truth
Iffi jump outta plane without parachute
Mamma never spoil me, I ain't no rude
No one joke on mi, I'll see your suit
Wicked me name I know gyal dem cute
Mi love da girls that go I love my fruit
No woman no cry (No woman, no woman, no no)
Too much woman dem die (Everyday, everyday)
No woman no cry (No woman, no woman, no woman no)
Too much woman dem die
Hey, every woman in the slum ya gotta live it up
Live it, live it, yes dey got to leave it up
Tell dem uptown girls them haffi live it up
Live it, live it, yes dey got to leave it up
Stand firm my girls, no giving up
Ain't no giving up
No woman no
No woman no cry no no
Zagga
