She may get 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
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's 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's their whole happiness
And it's oh so easy
Just try a little tenderness
You got to try
You've got a whole
You've got to squeeze her
You have to try
You've got to try
And always please her
You won't regret
You won't regret it
Try a little tenderness
