Bob Marley - No Woman No Cry" Live 1979

Versuri

No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry
No woman no cry

say, say,
Say I remember when we used to sit
In a government yard in Trenchtown
Observing the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet
Good friends we have
Oh, good friends we lost
Along the way
In this great future,
You can't forget your past
So dry your tears, I seh

No woman no cry
No woman no cry
Little darling, don't shed no tears
No woman no cry

Say, Say
Said I remember when we use to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown
And then Georgie would make the fire lights
I seh, log would burnin' through the nights
Then we would cook cornmeal porridge
Of which I'll share with you
My feet is my only carriage
And so I've got to push on through,
Oh, while I'm gone

Everything 's gonna be alright
Everything 's gonna be alright

No woman no cry
No woman no cry

I say little darlin'
Don't shed no tears
No woman no cry



Amandla--Festival of Unity—was a world music festival held at Harvard Stadium in Boston, Massachusetts, on July 21, 1979. The goals of the concert were to support and celebrate the liberation of Southern Africa as well as the on-going efforts of people in Boston to end racism in their families, schools, workplaces and communities.

Wikisource has original speeches held at the:
'''Amandla Festival'''
The word 'Amandla' is from the South-African Zulu language and means 'power', 'strength' or 'energy'. The headline performance was reggae superstar Bob Marley and his band The Wailers. Marley made several short speeches during his encore when he powerfully blamed the system and urgently claimed Africa's unity and freedom. Those onstage speeches were unusual for Marley, as he normally was threatened with censorship when speaking openly about the system's failure and marijuana smoking, as he did at the Amandla Festival.
