| No, woman, no cry.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry.
 | 
| 'Cause—'cause—'cause I remember when a we used to sit
 | 
| In a government yard in Trenchtown,
 | 
| Ob—observing the hypocrites.
 | 
| Yeah!
 | 
| Mingle with the good people we meet.
 | 
| Yeah!
 | 
| Good friends we have. | 
| Oh.
 | 
| Good friends we have lost along the way. | 
| Yeah!
 | 
| In this great future you can't forget your past.
 | 
| So dry your tears, I say.
 | 
| Yeah.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry. | 
| Eh, yeah!
 | 
| A little darlin', don't shed no tears.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry. | 
| Eh!
 | 
| Said—said—said I remember when we used to sit
 | 
| In the government yard in Trenchtown. | 
| Yeah.
 | 
| And then Georgie would make the fire lights,
 | 
| I say, log wood burnin' through the nights.
 | 
| Yeah!
 | 
| Then we would cook cornmeal porridge,
 | 
| I say, of which I'll share with you.
 | 
| Yeah!
 | 
| My feet is my only carriage
 | 
| And so I've got to push on through.
 | 
| But while I'm gone,
 | 
| Everything's gonna be all right!
 | 
| 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!
 | 
| Everything's gonna be all right, yeah!
 | 
| Everything's gonna be all right!
 | 
| So, no, woman, no cry.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry.
 | 
| I say, oh, little—oh, little darlin', don't shed no tears.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry. | 
| Eh.
 | 
| No, woman—no, woman—no, woman, no cry.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry.
 | 
| One more time I got to say,
 | 
| Oh, little-little darlin', please don't shed no tears.
 | 
| No, woman, no cry. |
