It's a common misconception that Sublime had done the recording; however, it was done by the rap group Murder One, featuring Kid Rock. This is proven by the lyric, ""...murder one's in the house tonight and everything is gonna be alright..." Also, I believe this recording was made after Bradley Nowell had passed away (R.I.P.). I am not requesting you to change the title, not by any means, just felt I should put in my two cents, maybe clear up a misconception or two. Thanks for the great covers! I love the O.A.R. one, had never heard it before. Just a small correction- The third cover, which is “by Sublime” is actually a cover done by Murder One.

I looked it up before posting and that was what was stated. He talks about it's going to be alright, but not just to one lady, but to a sister, mother, etc. Domestic abuse against women runs rampant there, so you can imagine what it was like in his day. Some people also believe it was a political song, others believe it was a song for Rita. Either way, it's a classic! @Chane Actually most people believe it was about abuse and violence against women.

I've never read that the song was about "violence and abuse" against women. In fact, I think that is incorrect. Trenchtown was a very rough place and things were very unstable back then. He was just telling the girl he loved not to cry and that everything was going to be alright. But, not because she was beaten. With that said, I've been to Jamaica, and I've been to Kingston and things are very rough there. I was told by a few locals that the average girl loses her virginity at a very early age and it's usually not by choice. I’m a huge Bob Marley fan.
