I remember when-a 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: no, woman, no cry;
no, woman, no cry.
woman, little sister, don't shed no tears:
no, woman, no cry.
Said - said: i remember, oh, when-a 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 i-is my only carriage
so i've got to push on through.
but while i'm gone-a, baby:
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!
No, woman, no cry; oh, no, no!
sayin', woman, now: no, woman, no cry.
woman, little sister, you can dry your weeping eyes;
no, woman, no cry. eh!

(little darlin', don't shed no tears;
no, woman, no cry.
little sister, don't shed no tears;
no, woman, no cry)
