Try a Little Tenderness,,,,,,

James Campbell

I

She maybe weary,
Women do get weary.
Wearing the same shabby dress (Making that old budget fit).
And, when she's weary,
Try a little tenderness.

II

Oh, she may be waiting.
Just anticipating,
Things she may never possess.
And, while she's without them,
Try a little tenderness.

III

It's not just sentimental,
She has her own griefs and cares.
But a word so soft and gentle,
Makes it easier to bear.

IV

You won't regret it,
Women don't forget it.
Love is their whole happiness,
And, it's all so easy,
Try a little tenderness.

V

Oh, a word so soft and gentle,
Makes everything easy to bear
You won't regret it.
Women don't forget it.
Love is their whole happiness.
And, it's all so easy,
Try a little tenderness.

VI

You gotta try.
You gotta hold her.
You gotta squeeze her.
You gotta try.
You gotta try,
To always please her.
You won't regret it.
Try a little tenderness......
