She may be weary Women do get weary Wearing the same shabby dress And when she's weary Try a little tenderness
She may be waiting Just anticipating Things she may never possess But while she's without them Try a little tenderness
It's not just sentimental She has her grief And her care But a word So soft and gentle Makes it easier to bear
You won't regret it Women don't forget it Love is their whole happiness And it's oh so easy Try a little tenderness
But a word Soft and gentle Makes it easier to bear
You won't regret it Women don't forget it Love is their whole happiness And it's oh so easy Just try a little tenderness You've gotta try You've gotta hold her You've got to squeeze her You have to try You got to try And always please her You won't regret it You won't regret it Oh, try a little tenderness
