No Women, no Cry
Edited on Sat May-01-04 08:47 PM by Old and In the Way
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Cause I remember when we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Observing the hypocrites
Mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, Oh, good friends we have lost
Along the way
In this great future,
You can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I seh
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry
Said I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
I seh, log would burnin' through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which i'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
And so i've got to push on thru,
Oh, while i'm gone
Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
I seh little darlin'
Don't shed no tears

1. Lately I've been listening to "Zimbabwe"
Every man got a right to decide his
own destiny
and in this judgement there is
no partiality
so arm in arm, with arms
we fight this little struggle
cause that's the only way we can
overcome a little trouble

Here's the image I see when I hear Bob say "little trouble":
