Try a Little Tenderness

Oh, she may be weary
Young girls they do get weary
Wearing that same old shaggy dress
But when she gets weary
Try a little tenderness

You know she's waiting
Just anticipating
For things that she'll never, never, never, never possess, yeah, yeah
But while she's there waiting
Try a little tenderness (That's all you gotta do, baby)

It's not just sentimental, no, no, no
She has her grief and care, yeah, yeah, yeah
But the soft words, they are spoke so gentle, yeah
It makes it easier, easier to bear, yeah

You won't regret it
And girls they don't forget it
Love is their only happiness, yeah
But it's so easy
Just try, try a little tenderness, yeah
All you gotta do is try
And squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her, yeah

Try a little tenderness, oh no
You gotta do it
You gotta squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her
Tenderness, yeah, yeah

Hold her, console her, never let her go
Try a little tenderness, no, no, no
All you gotta do is, all you gotta do is
Squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her
Tenderness

Squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her
Try a little tenderness, no, no, no, no

Squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her
Try a little tenderness, no, no, no, no

Squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her
Try a little tenderness
