“Good friends we have 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
No woman, no cry
No woman, no cry
Little darlin' don't shed no tears
No woman, no cry”

Bob Marley (1945–1981) Jamaican singer, songwriter, musician

Disputed, No Woman, No Cry, from the album Natty Dread (1974)
