No Woman No Cry
Bob Marley & The Wailers Lyrics
No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
'Cause, 'cause, 'cause I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
Oba, observing the hypocrites, yeah
Mingle with the good people we meet, yeah
Good friends we have, oh, good friends we've lost
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
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
A log wood burnin' through the night, 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 alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
So no, woman, no cry
No, woman, no cry
I say, oh little, oh little, darling, 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've got to say
Oh little, little darling, please don't shed no tears
No, woman, no cry
No, woman, no, woman no cry

The tears flow when he starts singing "Everything's gonna be all right"

This video was recorded 7 months and 17 days after I turned 15 and it still speaks wonderful words to me and I am 61 now. R.I.P. Bob, your words will never be forgotten.

Something's are hard to contextualize. Bob died aged only 36 years only. Yet 41 years later he's still a legend. Nobody, has outdone him in reggae songs. He was truly sent from above. Rest in power Bob.
Chris Mwangi
Not only reggae in all genres the youths in most African countries love this legend they relate to his songs so much
