A Dedication to all the refugees worldwide |
|
One time say, say, say |
|
I remember when we used to sit in the government yard in Brooklyn. |
|
Observing the crookedness as it mingled with the good people we meet. |
|
Good friends we had |
|
Good friends we've lost along the way |
|
In this great future you can't forget your past, So dry your tears |
|
I say and to my peeps who passed away, |
|
No woman, no cry, no woman no cry, say, say,say. |
|
Hey little sister don't shed no tears |
|
No woman no cry say say say. |
|
I remember when we used to rock in a project yard in Jersey, |
|
And little Georgie would make the firelight, |
|
As stolen cars passed through the night |
|
And then we'd hit the corner store for Roots, paper, and brew. |
|
My drink's my only remedy |
|
For pain of losing family, but while I'm gone Shorty, |
|
Everything's gonna be alright, everything's gonna be alright, |
|
Fugees come to dance tonight, everything's gonna be alright, |
|
O everything's gonna be alright, |
|
The gun man's in the house tonight, |
|
But everything's gonna be alright. |
|
Oh ah oh ah |
|
No woman no cry |
|
No woman no cry |
|
No woman no cry |
|
No woman no cry |
|
Say, Say, |
|
Say I remember when we used to sit |
|
In a government yard in Trenchtown |
|
Observing the hypocrites |
|
As they would mingle with the good people we met |
|
Good friends we have |
|
Oh, good friends we have 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 |
|
Little sister, don't shed no tears |
|
No woman no cry |
