As he told noted UK urban writer Pete Lewis of Blues & Soul in June 2007: "In 'Take You There' I'm basically telling a girl 'Let me take you to where I'm from - to Jamaica, to the paradise and to the slums!'. Because, while many people just think of the tropical beaches, there is definitely another, rugged side to the island too!"On the issue date of November 17, 2007 the single debuted on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 81 and peaked at number 7. more »

We can go to the tropics
Sip pina coladas
Shorty I could take you there
Or we can go to the slums
Where killers get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya)
I could take ya (I could take ya)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya)
I could take ya (I could take ya)
Shorty I could take you there

Baby girl I know it's rough but come with me
We can take a trip to the hood
It's no problem girl it's my city
I could take you there

Little kid with guns only fifteen
Roam in the streets up to no good
When gun shots just watch us, run quickly
I could show you where

As long you're with me
Baby you'll be alright
I'm known in the ghetto
Girl just stay by my side
Or we can leave the slums go to paradise
Baby it's up to you
It's whatever you like

We can go to the tropics
Sip pina coladas
Shorty I could take you there
Or we can go to the slums
Where killers get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya)
I could take ya (I could take ya)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya)
I could take ya (I could take ya)
Shorty I could take you there

Shorty come with me it's no worry

I know the bad men them where they ah stay
Police fly pursuit in a hurry
This is no gun play
Don't be scared in the West Indies
It's Jamaica, that's where I'm from
Might see something you're not used to
Welcome to the slums

As long you're with me
Baby you'll be alright
I'm known in the ghetto
Girl just stay by my side
Or we can leave the slums go to paradise
Baby it's up to you
It's whatever you like

We can go to the tropics
Sip pina coladas
Shorty I could take you there
Or we can go to the slums
Where killers get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya)
I could take ya (I could take ya)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya)
I could take ya (I could take ya)
Shorty I could take you there

Or we (or we)
Can go (can go)
To a place (to a place)
I know you gonna like (oh oh oh)
The beach (the beach)
The breeze (the breeze)
West Indies, I call it paradise

We can go to the tropics
Sip pina coladas
Shorty I could take you there
Or we can go to the slums
Where killers get hung
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya)
I could take ya (I could take ya)
Shorty I could take you there
You know I could take ya (I could take ya)
I could take ya (I could take ya)
Shorty I could take you there
