Try A Little Tenderness

Lyrics

Oh, she may be weary
 And young girls they do get wearied
 Wearing that same old shaggy dress, yeah, yeah
 But when she gets weary
 Try a little tenderness, yeah, yeah
 
 ♪
 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, without them
 Try a little tenderness
 
 That's all you gotta do
 ♪
 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, no, no
 Some girls they don't forget it
 Love is their own happiness, yeah
 ♪
 But it's all so easy
 All you gotta do is try
 Try a little tenderness, yeah
 All you gotta do is, man
 Hold her where you want her
 Squeeze her
 Don't tease her
 Never leave her
 Get to her, try, try
 Just try a little tenderness, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
 Don't bruise her, no no
 You've got to love her, tease her, don't squeeze her
 Gotta try nah, nah, nah, try
 Try a little tenderness, ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah
 You've gotta to know what to do, man
 Take this advice
