Song lyrics

A dedication to all the refugees worldwide
One time, say, say, say

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,
Everything's gonna be alright.
The gun man's in the house tonight,
But everything's gonna be alright.

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 a government yard in Trenchtown.
The hypocrites as they mingled with the good people we meet,
Good friends we had,
Good friends we've lost along the way.
Along the way.
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 sistser, don't shed no tears,
No woman, no cry, and to my peeps who passed away.
