I said, if we never get a chance to be together
Go with Jah, Tanya loves ya, wha me seh?

It’s a pity, you already have a wife
And me done have a man inna mi life
Rude boy, it is a pity

I say, it is a pity, you already have yuh wife
And me have a one man inna mi life
Rude boy, it is a pity

I woulda like one of these mornings to wake up and find
Your face on a pillow lying right next to mine
I woulda cut out the partying and the smoking and the rum
And buss a extra wine and make we seal up a son

Well, every time mi fantasize, me see your lips, me see your eyes
Your trigger finger do something a lef the rude girl hypnotized
For you it’s just a thing, just another little fling
But for me this is Heaven and the angel them a sing

It’s a pity, you already have a wife
And me done have a man inna mi life
Rude boy, it’s such a pity, yo

I say, it is such a pity, you already have yuh wife
And me have a one man inna mi life
Rude boy, it is a pity

Fi buck you up inna public and can’t even touch
It really fuck me up because me check fi you so much
The respect weh mi have fi your woman, fi your kids
Believe me rude boy mi criss, a nuh matey this

Who knows? Maybe one day the world will be evolved enough
We’ll share you in a civilized manner between the two of us
But until then I woulda love see you again
Me know we have fi play it by the stupid rules of sin

I said, if we never get a chance to be together
Go with Jah, Tanya loves ya, wha me seh?

So meet me round the corner, avoid Mitzy and Lorna
You know them a two of the biggest informer
I’m not starving for sex no, nah bawl out vex no
But the way how yuh flex really beat my interest yo

Ayou weh people see a no the you fa me loving
And the you weh deh with me go much deeper than skin
I don’t know exactly what it is you’re feeling
But I wish this was a permanent thing, yo

It’s such a pity, you already have yuh wife
And me done have a man inna mi life
Rude boy, it is a pity

I say, it is such a pity, you already have yuh wife
And me done a one man inna mi life
Rude boy, it is a pity

Me know seh you belong to she
You know seh me belong to him
Me wouldn’t want you dis your queen
Me woulda never dis mi king

But when yuh play pon mi riddim
And when me feel your base a swing
You lef me inna turmoil, you have me head a spin

It really mek me sad fi haffi waste so much water
I think the two o’ we can mek a beautiful daughter
But it would be selfish to an innocent little youth
Fi bring her come and cannot tell her the truth
Tell her the truth

I said, go with Jah, I will always love you
I said, if we never get a chance to be together
Go with Jah, remember Tanya loves ya

Prevod pesme

Baš šteta

Kažem, ako nikad ne dobijemo šansu da budemo zajedno
Idi s Bogom, Tanja te voli, šta sam rekla?

Baš šteta, već imaš ženu
A ja sam sa muškarcima završila
Čoveče, baš je šteta

Kažem, šteta je što već imaš ženu
A ja imam jednog muškarca u svom životu
Čoveče, baš je šteta

Volela bih da se jednog jutra probudim i ugledam
Tvoje lice kako leži na jastuku pored mog
Odrekla bih se žurki, pušenja i ruma
I zadrmala kukovima i doprinela da napravimo sina

Pa, svaki put kad maštam, vidim tvoje usne, vidim tvoje oči
Ti samo mrdneš prstom i ja ostanem u transu
Tebi je to samo zabava, samo još jedna mala prevara
Ali za mene, to je raj i pesma anđela

Baš šteta, već imaš ženu
A ja nemam muškarca u svom životu
Čoveče, baš je šteta

Kažem, živa šteta što već imaš ženu
A ja imam jednog muškarca u svom životu
Čoveče, baš je šteta

Kad naletim na tebe u javnosti i ne smem ni da te dotaknem
To me stvarno sjebe jer tako jako želim tebe
Ali poštujem tvoju ženu i tvoju decu
Veruj mi, čoveče, dobro sam, nije to za mene da budem druga*

Ko zna? Možda će jednog dana svet dovoljno uznapredovati
Nas dve ćemo te na jedan civilizovan način deliti
Ali do tada, volela bih da te opet vidim
Znam da moramo igrati po glupim pravilima greha

Kažem, ako nikad ne dobijemo šansu da budemo zajedno
Idi s Bogom, Tanja te voli, šta sam rekla?

Zato, vidimo se iza ćoška, izbegavaj Mici i Lornu
Znaš da su njih dve najveće alapače
Nisam gladna seksa, ne, nisam dovoljno ljuta da bih plakala
Ali tvoje viđenje zabave stvarno intrigira me

Tamo gde ima ljudi, ti mene ne voliš
A moja osećanja prema tebi mnogo su dublja
Ne znam tačno šta osećaš ti
Ali ja bih volela da je ovo za stalno

Kažem, živa šteta što već imaš ženu
A ja nemam muškarca u svom životu
Čoveče, baš je šteta

Kažem, živa šteta što već imaš ženu
A ja imam jednog muškarca u svom životu
Čoveče, baš je šteta

Znam da kažeš da pripadaš njoj
Ti znaš da ja kažem da pripadam njemu
Ne bih da šutneš svoju kraljicu
Ja svog kralja nikad ne bih šutnula

Ali kad igraš u mom ritmu
I kad osetim kako se vrtiš
Ja se zapalim, u glavi mi se zavrti

Stvarno me rastužuje što moram da lijem tolike suze
Verujem da bi nas dvoje napravili prelepu kćerku
Ali bilo bi sebično prema nevinom detetu
doneti je na svet i ne moći joj reći istinu
Reci joj istinu

Kažem, idi s Bogom, uvek ću te voleti
Kažem, ako nikad ne dobijemo šansu da budemo zajedno
Idi s Bogom, zapamti, Tanja te voli
