No Woman, No Cry (Canine Remix)



Said
Said
Said
I remember, when we used to sit, in a government yard in Long Beach.
Oba-Observing the treachery as it mingled with the good people we’d meet.
Good friends we have, and good friends we’ve lost, along the way.
In this great future, we can’t forget our past.  So dry your tears I say.



No woman no cry.
No woman no cry.
Here little darlin, don’t shed no tears.
No woman no cry.



Say
Say
Said I remember, when we used to sit, on a rooftop in San Pedro.
And then shortly, the sun would lose firelight.
So we’d be burning all through the night.
And we would live, all kinds of stories
Of which I’ll share, with you.


My love is my only charity.
Is that how it’s supposed to be?
But when I’m gone you’ll say:


Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right
Oh everything’s gonna be all right
Everything’s gonna be all right now.

Summertime, and the livin’s easy.
The heats burning up in the LBC.
The heat’s cracking streets in the LBC.
The crack on the streets do nothing to me
’Cuz I burn so much tree ya wouldn’t believe.
The heat’s cracking peeps in the LBC,
So we’re all packing heat in the LBC,
Revolution’s in the streets of the LBC,


Blood in the streets in the city of Long Beach.
Blood stains the roots of the palm trees of Venice.
Blood muddies sands of the Early Came Summer,
Bloody red moon of fantastic L.A.


And when it all goes down, we’ll say
Here little sister, don’t shed no tear.
No woman, no cry.
No woman, no cry,
No woman, no cry.


Said I remember, when we used to sit, in a college yard in Long Beach.
And then shortly, the sun would lose firelight.
And we’d be blazing all through the night.
And we would live, all kinds of stories
Of which I’ll share, with you.

My love is my only charity,
Who knows what’s supposed to be,
So forget your fears, I say,


No woman no cry.
No woman no cry.
Here my shawty, don’t shed no tears.
No woman no cry.

And to the friends who’ve passed away:

No woman no cry.
No woman no cry.
Please little darlin, don’t shed no tears.
No woman no cry.
