No Woman No Cry - Live At The Stanley Theatre, 9/23/1980

I remember when we used to sit
In a government yard in trenchtown
Oba - obaserving the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet (meet)
Good friends we have, oh, good friends we've lost
Along the way (way)

In this great future, you can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I say
And then no, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
Woman no cry, oh no no no please don't shed no tears
No, woman, no woman no cry
I said - said I remember, when we used to sit
In a government yard in trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light

As it was logwood burnin' through the night (night)
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you (ooh)
You see, my feet here is my only carriage
So I've got to push on through
But while I'm gone

Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right-a!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right - yeah!
Everything's gonna be all right!
Everything's gonna be all right-a!
Everything's gonna be all right!

So woman, no cry, oh no no!
Don't ya, no no woman, no, woman, no cry
Woman, little sister, don't shed no tears
No, woman, no woman no cry

Woman no cry, oh no no
Please don't shed no tears
No no woman, no, woman, no cry

Little sister, don't shed no tears
No, woman, no cry

Little darling, don't shed no tears
No, woman no cry
