Try A Little Tenderness lyrics

Oh she may be weary

Young girls they do got weary

Wearing that same old shabby dress

Yeah yeah yeah

But when she gets weary

Try a little tenderness

Oh yeah, that's all you gotta do

You know she's there waiting

Just anticipating

Things that she'll never, never possess

No no no

But while she's there waiting

Try a little tenderness

It's not just sentimental, no no no no

She has her grief and cares

But the soft words

That are spoke so gently, yeah

It makes it easier, easier to bear

You won't regret it

Young girls they don't forget it

Love is their only happiness

Yeah yeah yeah

Its so so easy

Try a little tenderness

You know what I mean

But the soft words

They are spoken so gently, yeah, yeah

It makes it easier, easier to bear

She may be weary

young girls they do got weary

Wearing that same old shabby dress

Yeah yeah yeah

But when she gets weary

Try a little tenderness

Yeah, a little tenderness

That's all you've gotta do

Listen to me

Try, try, try, try

One time for the last time

A little bit of tenderness

tenderness, tenderness

Ooh, need you, I love you

I want you tonight, love me, baby

A little bit of tenderness
