Try a Little Tenderness Lyrics

It′s not just sentimental
She has her grief and care
But the soft words they are spoke so gentle
It makes it easier, easier to bear

Oh, she may be weary
Young girls they do get weary
Wearing that same old shaggy dress, yeah
But when she's weary

Try a little tenderness
Oh, that′s all you gotta do now

You know she's waiting
Just anticipating the things
That she never, never possessed, oh no, no
But while she's waiting there

All you got to do is try a little tenderness
Oh yeah

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

Oh, you won′t regret it, no, no
Young girls they don't forget it
Love, love, love is their own happiness, oh yeah
But it′s all so easy

All you got to do is try a little tenderness

Oh, tenderness
All you have to do is try a little tenderness
All you have to do, oh baby, be nice
Try a little tenderness

Squeeze her, don't leave her
Try a little tenderness

Try a little tenderness
Tenderness
You won′t regret it
Oh no, they don't forget it
If you try
Try a little tenderness
Love is their own happiness
Try, try a little tenderness
Try a little tenderness

Hug her, squeeze her, don't leave her
Try a little tenderness
Young girls they do get weary

Try a little tenderness
Oh yeah
