Gotta Give It Time - The Monkees

Baby, just stop your shoving, baby

Shoving won’t get you loving, babe

You gotta play it a-right or lose what’s on the line

Babe, you gotta give it time

(Give it time now, baby, gotta just give it time now, baby)

Budging ain’t gonna do it, baby

Gotta be much more to it, baby

Love just like a fine old vintage wine

Babe, you gotta give it time

(Give it time now, baby, gotta just give it time now, baby)

Ah, you gotta take it slow, girl

Yeah, and just let it flow, girl

Ah, and when the time is right

Just close your eyes and hold on tight now

Just give it time now, baby

Gotta just give it time now, baby

Gotta just give it time now, baby

Ah, give it time, babe

Ah, your turn

Ah

Will come a minute that you learn

You had better just stop your shoving, baby

Shoving won’t get you loving, baby

Just hold back and things’ll work out fine

Babe, you gotta give it time

(Give it time now, baby, gotta just give it time now, baby)

Ah, you gotta take it slow, girl

Yeah, just let it grow now

Ah, and when the time is right

Just close your eyes and hold on tight now

Gotta just give it time now, baby

Gotta just give it time now, baby

Gotta just give it time now, baby

Gotta just give it time now, baby

Gotta just give it time now, baby
