No Woman, No Cry

Dedication to all the refugees worldwide
Ah, one time
Say, say, say

I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Brooklyn
Ob-observing the crookedness
As they mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, 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
A-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 run (Yeah)
In a project yard in Jersey
And little Georgie would make the fire light
As stolen cars pass through the night
And they would hit the corner store
For roots, paper and brew, 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

Everything's gonna be alright
Everything's gonna be alright
The gunman's in the house tonight
But everything's gonna be alright
(Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah) White lips
In the air (Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah)
Lovers in the air (Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah)
Refugees in the air (Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah)
Everywhere and everywhere (Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah)
I'm so peaceful (Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah)

Peace and love around (Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah)
Yeah

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 the government yard in Trenchtown
Ob-observing the hypocrites
As they mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have, 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

To my peeps that passed away (Oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah, oh, ah)
Refugees in the house
Dedication to all the refugees who passed away
White lips in the house
Yeah

Peace and love
In the house
A love around
Refugee styling
Yeah

A love around
One, two, three, say it
White lips
