Try a Little Tenderness

I may get weary

Women do get weary

Wearing the same shabby dress

But to on who's weary

Try a little

Try a little tenderness

I may be waiting

Just anticipating

All of the things

I may never possess

Mmm but while I'm waiting

Try a little

Try a little tenderness

I may be I may be sentimental

But I wanna say

That I've had my griefs

Oh and I've had my cares

And just a good word

Soft and gentle

Makes it makes it easier

Easier to bear

Now I might forget it

Oh but don't let me forget it

Love's all my whole

Whole happiness

Mmm and it's so so easy

Try a little

Oh try a little tenderness

Tender tender tenderness
