Wyclef Jean - No Woman No Cry lyrics

A dedication to all the refugees Worldwide
One Time say Say say
I remember when we used to sit
In a Government yard in Brooklyn
Uba Uba solvin' the crookedness
As we mingled wit tha good people we meet
Good friends we've had
(oh) good friends we've lost
Along the waaaaayyy in the this great future
You can't forget your past
So dry you're tears I say
To my peepz across the way no woman no cry
No woman no cry say, say, say
Here little sister don't shed no tears
No woman no cry say, say, say

I remember wen we used to rock
In a project yard in jersey
And Lil Georgy would make the fire light
As stolen cars pass through tha night
And then weed hit the corner store
For roots paper, and brew
My drapes my only remody
For pain of losin' family
But while I'm gone shorty

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Fugees come to the dance tonight
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright
The gun man is in da house tonight
But everything is gonna be alright

Oa oa oa oa oa oa oa oa oa (dan dan)
Oa oa oa oa (i'm high) oa oa oa oa
No woman no cry no woman no cry
Here little sister don't shed no tears
No woman no cry say say say

I remember wen we used to sit
In a government yard in Trench town
Uba uba solvin the hypocrit's
As They mingled wit the good people we meet
Good friends we had
(oh) good friends we've lost
Along the way heey in this great future you
Can't forget your past
So dry your tears I say

No woman no cry no women no cry
Say, say, say
Here little sister don't shed no tears
No woman no cry oa oa oa oa oa
Oa oa oa oa oa oa oa oa
Peace out 1 love jah Shout
Outs to all my west indies
