Lyrics:

No woman, no cry,

No woman, no cry

Said I remember when we used to sit

In the government yard in Trenchtown

Oba, ob-serving the hypocrites

As they would mingle with the good people we meet, see

Good friends we have had, oh good friends we've lost along the way

In this bright future you can't forget your past

So dry your tears I say

No woman, no cry,

No woman, no cry

Said, I remember when we used to sit

In the government yard in Trenchtown

Then Georgie would make the fire light

Log wood burnin' through the night

Then we would cook corn meal porridge, yes we,

Of which I'll share with you

I said my feet is my only carriage

So I've got to push on through

But while I'm gone...

Ev'rything's gonna be alright

So, no woman, no cry

No woman, no cry,

No woman, no cry

Oh, my little darling, oh please don't you shed no tears

No woman, no cry

Oh, my little sister I'm begging you don't shed no tears

No woman, no cry

No woman, no cry..
