(Shaggy)   Now I got to give this one a whole lot a love   And this one goes out to them on a world wide tip   Let them know that Beres Hammond is definitely   Here to spread nothing but love   Love for the world and love for the nation...   A little bit a love in Herzegovina   A little bit a love a spread it in Jamaica   A wanna little bit a love in America   And let them know       Chorus   Take time to love, take time to love   Take time to love, take time to love       All the boys in New York City   And all the dreads in London City   And all the militant ones in Lebanon   All the way over there in Japan   Push up your hands 'cause you understand   Now put a permanent pause on hate   Let's get it on       Chorus (repeat)       Oh if you really feel it then sing   You got it you got it   Just for the record can I hear it again   Oh there it is there it is there it is   Take time to love   You got it you got it   There it is there it is yes       All the big bad dan dan dadas   Cool the vibes in sweet Jamaica   I know it's rough but we're still   Hanging on oh yea   Settle the war on Herzegovina   Listen rhythm and rock and come in ya   Why can't we all just get along It's the time   Take time to love If you really feel it then sing   You got it you got it yea   Just for the record can I hear it again   Oh God there it is there it is   Lets make some love take time to love
