No Woman, No Cry

A dedication to all the refugees worldwide
One time say, say, say
I remember when we used to sit
Oh, in the government yard in Brooklyn
Oba-Observing the crookedness
As it mingled with the good people we meet
Good friends we had, oh
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
Oh, 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 brew
My drinks 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~~ Auber come to the dance tonight
But everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Oh everything's gonna be alright
The gun man's in the house tonight
But everything's gonna be alright

Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah

No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Hey, little sister, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry say say say

I remember when we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Oba-Observing the hypocrites
As they mingled with the good people we meet
Good friends we had
Oh Good friends we've lost
Along the way hey
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 say say say
Hey, little sistser, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
And to my peeps who passed away

Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
Oh ah oh ah
