Try a Little Tenderness
Oh, she may be weary
Them young girls do get weary
Wearing that same old shabby dress
But when she gets weary
Try a little tenderness, yeah
You know she's waiting, just anticipating
The things that she'll never, never, never, never possess, yeah, yeah
But while she's there waiting without them
You got to try, try a little tenderness
That's all you gotta do
Well, it's not all just sentimental, no, no
She has her grief and her pain, pain, pain
But those words
They all spoke so gentle
It makes it easier, well, easier to bear
Oh, you won't regret it
Young girls, they never forget it
Love is their only happiness
But it's so easy (so easy)
Well, all you gotta do
Is try a little tenderness
I said and I squeeze her
I tease her, never leave her
You've gotta, you've gotta
You've gotta, you've gotta
Gotta try a little tenderness
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I said and I squeeze her
I tease her, never leave her
You've gotta, you've gotta
You've gotta, gotta try a little tenderness
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Come on, I squeeze
I tease, never leave her
You've gotta (gotta), you've gotta (gotta)
You've gotta, gotta try a little tenderness
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
I said and I squeeze
I tease, never leave her
You've gotta (gotta), gotta (gotta)
Gotta (gotta) try a little tenderness
Them young girls do get weary
Wearing that same old shabby dress
But when she gets weary
Try a little tenderness, yeah
You know she's waiting, just anticipating
The things that she'll never, never, never, never possess, yeah, yeah
But while she's there waiting without them
You got to try, try a little tenderness
That's all you gotta do
Well, it's not all just sentimental, no, no
She has her grief and her pain, pain, pain
But those words
They all spoke so gentle
It makes it easier, well, easier to bear
Oh, you won't regret it
Young girls, they never forget it
Love is their only happiness
But it's so easy (so easy)
Well, all you gotta do

I tease her, never leave her
You've gotta, you've gotta
You've gotta, you've gotta
Gotta try a little tenderness
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
