Songtexte

[Verse 1]

Oh, she may be weary

Them 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

[Verse 2]

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

[Verse 3]

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

[Verse 4]

You won't regret it, no, no

Some girls, they don't forget it

Love is their only happiness, yeah

But it's all so easy

[Chorus]

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 (Yeah, yeah, yeah)

[Chorus]

You got to know how to love her, man

You'll be surprised, man

You've got to squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave

You've got to hold her and rub her softly

Try a little tenderness, yeah, yeah, yeah

[Chorus]

You got to rub her gentle, man

All you gotta do, don't lose her, no, no

You've got to love her, squeeze her, don't tease her

Got to try, nah, nah, nah, try

Try a little tenderness, yeah, watch her groove

[Outro]

You've got to know what to do, man

Take this advice

You got to love her, squeeze her, don't tease her
