LYRICS: Tems – No Woman No Cry

No woman No cry

Intro
No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry

Verse 1
I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba, observing the hypocrites
Mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have and good friends we’ve lost
Along the way
In this great future, you can’t forget your past
So dry your tears I say

Chorus
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
‘Ere, little darling, don’t shed no tears
No, woman, no cry

Verse 2
Said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire light, as it was
A log wood burning through the night
Then we would cook corn meal porridge
Of which I’ll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
No, I’ve got to push on through
But while I’m gone

Bridge
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright now
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright
Everything’s gonna be alright now
Everything’s gonna be alright
So woman, no cry, cry, cry
No, woman, no (Woman, no)
So woman, no cry, no cry
No, woman, no cry

Outro
Hmm
Ooh
Ooh
