เพลง No Woman, No Cry (L.P. Version)

A dedication to all the refugees worldwide

One time say say say

I remember when we used to sit

In the government yard in Brooklyn

Obba observing the crookedness

As it mingled with the good people we meet

Good friends we had

Good friends we've lost along the way

In this great future you can't forget your past

So dry your tears I say And to my peeps who passed away

No woman no cry no woman no cry say say say

Hey little sister don't shed no tears

No woman no cry say say say

I remember when we used to rock in a project yard in Jersey

And little Georgie would make the firelight

As stolen cars passed through the night

And then we'd hit the corner store for Roots paper and brew

My drink's my only remedy

For pain of losing family but while I'm gone Shorty

Everything's gonna be alright everything's gonna be alright

Fugees come to the dance tonight everything's gonna be alright

Oh everything's gonna be alright

The gun man's in the house tonight

But everything's gonna be alright

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah

No woman no cry no woman no cry

Hey little sister don't shed no tears

No woman no cry say say say

I remember when we used to sit in a government yard in Trenchtown

Obba observing the hypocrites

As they mingled with the good people we meet

Good friends we had Oh good friends we've lost

Along the way hey

In this great future

You can't forget your past so dry your tears I say

And no woman no cry No woman no cry say say say

Hey little sistser don't shed no tears

No woman no cry and to my peeps who passed away

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah

Oh ah oh ah
