Oba, observing the hypocrites
As they would mingle with the good people we meet,
Good friends we had oh good friends we've lost along the way.
In this bright future you can't forget your past.
So, dry your tears, I say.
And...

Here, little darlin', don't shed no tears.
Said, said, said I remember when we used to sit
In the government yard in Trenchtown;
And then Georgie would make a fire light.
As it was log wood burnin' through the night.
Then we would cook corn meal porridge of which I'll share with you.
My feet is my only carriage,
So, I've got to push on through, but while I'm gone. I mean...
Ev'rything's gonna be alright.
Ev'rything's gonna be alright.
