SONG: NO WOMAN, NO CRYArtist: bob marley

year released: 1975

'Cause I remember when we used to sitIn the government yard in Trenchtown

Oba, ob-serving the hypocritesAs they would mingle with the good people we meet

Good friends we have had, oh good friends we've lostalong the wayIn this bright future you can't forget your past

So dry your tears I say

No woman, no cryNo woman, no cry

Little darlin' don't shed no tearsNo woman, no cry

Said, said, said I remember when we used to sitIn the government yard in Trenchtown

And then Georgie would make the fire lightLog wood burnin' through the night

Then we would cook corn meal porridgeOf which I'll share with you

My feet is my only carriageSo I've got to push on through

But while I'm gone...

Ev'rything's gonna be alrightEv'rything's gonna be alrightEv'rything's gonna be alrightEv'rything's gonna be alrightEv'rything's gonna be alrightEv'rything's gonna be alrightEv'rything's gonna be alrightEv'rything's gonna be alright

So, no woman, no cryNo, no woman, no woman, no cry

Oh, little darling, don't shed no tearsNo woman, no cry

No woman, no woman, no woman, no cryNo woman, no cry

Oh, my little darlin' please don't shed no tearsNo woman, no cry, yeah
