Rastafari know

Wey mi princess dey star

Come in like she mek a trod a ya'

Jah know

Yo, den, yo, yo, yo, den, yo

My princess gone

Far, far away

And she left me a note

Saying she's going to stay

Yo, my princess gone

Far, far awa-aay

And she left me a noo-oote

Saying she's going to stay

From di odda day, sey she a flop up, and mi see sey she go flip

Wit' di likkle short shorts, she have hitch up pan har hip

Is like she all forget about, di royalness

Her fren' an company, she a follow mi get di tip

Yo, roundabout she just a jump, she jus' a skip

Say whappen' to the other boy you know you used to keep

Say whappen to the King, wey you use to be wit'

Yo, well mi see sey dat a un. unloyal

She jus' gone

Far, far away

And she left me a note

Saying she's going to stay

My princess gone

Far, far away

And she left me a note

Saying she's going to stay

I mek di trod inna di days, she mek di trod inna di night

And she know say she was wrong

And she know dat I was right

Whappen to royalness, no more yuh nah act polite

When mi see sey dat you, ready fi, put up a fight

From di odda day mi, see sey you, acting hype

When yuh friend dem you go follow, an yuh follow di wrong type

My Princess gone

Far, far away

And she left me a note

Saying she's going to stay

My princess gone

Far, far away

And she left me a note

Saying she's going to stay

From di odda day she just a flop up, & mi see say she go flip

Wit' di likkle short shorts, she have hitch up pan har hip

She nuh 'memba 'bout di, king royalness

When a fren' an company, she a follow mi a get di tip

Say whappen to the King, man, you use to be wit'

Yo, well, it seem like sey she diss

My princess gone

Far, far away

And she left me a note

Saying she's going to stay
