The song was written and produced by [[Brian Holland]], [[Lamont Dozier]], [[Edward Holland, Jr.]], and Ron Dunbar. Because of then still pending lawsuit against Holland-Dozier-Holland from their former employers, [[Motown]], the trio credited themselves with the pseudonym "Edythe Wayne" for this song and many other early Invictus/[[Hot Wax Records|Hot Wax]] releases. "Give Me Just a Little More Time" features Chairmen of the Board lead singer [[General Norman Johnson|General Johnson]] as the narrator, begging a lover who rejected him to reconsider and give him "just a little more time". The song was very similar to a Motown recording in more ways than one. Not only was it written and produced by Holland-Dozier-Holland, but the instrumental track was performed by members of [[The Funk Brothers]], Motown's in-house band. The Funk Brothers who played on "Give Me Just A Little More Time" included: *Bass: [[Bob Babbitt]] *Guitarists: [[Dennis Coffey]], [[Eddie Willis]], and [[Ray Monette]] *Keyboards: [[Johnny Griffith (musician)|Johnny Griffith]] *Drums: [[Richard "Pistol" Allen]] *Percussion: [[Jack Ashford]] "Give Me Just a Little More Time", backed with "Since the Days of Pigtails", peaked at number three on the [[Billboard Hot 100]] in the [[United States]], making it the best-performing of the Chairmen's singles, and the first of the Chairmen's four Billboard Hot 100 [[Top 40]] pop hits.

The single also peaked at number-eight on the ''Billboard'' [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs|R&B Singles]] chart.
