No Woman, No Cry Lyrics - The Score - The Fugees

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 the 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, say say say 

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 trench town 

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 sister, don't shed no tears 

No woman no cry and to my peeps who passed away 

Oh ah oh ah
