Yeah, there's a whole section missing...here and everywhere else. I think it goes like this (at least this is the way I sing it):
Mm-mm. Mm-mm.
Saw my kid and my woman,
thrown onto the ground.
Saw them take my pride.
Oh children weep no more.
Oh my sycamore tree.
Saw the freedom tree.
Saw you settle the score.
Oh, children weep no more.
Weep no more.
Children weep no more.
FWIW, I've heard live versions too where he includes other lyrics like:
Saw you take my pride.
Took them for a ride.
Drove them for a ride.
Saw Jah settle the score.
Saw Jah open the door.
Saw the open tree.
Saw the open country.

Sorry "Saw my sycamore tree.", not "Oh my sycamore tree."

@whecks True, sometimes he freestyles it, he probably had many different versions throughout his lifetime.
