Ooh she may be weary
And young girls they do get weary
Wearing that same old shaggy dress
But when she gets weary
try a little tenderness
You know she's waiting
Just anticipating
The thing that she'll never, never, never, never possess
But while she's there waiting
And without them try a little tenderness
[Thats all you gotta do]
It’s not just sentimental, no, no, no
She has - her greaves and care
But the soft words they are spoken so gentle
Yeah
But, oh, that makes it, makes it easier to bear, yeah
You won’t regret it
No, no,
Young girls they don’t forget it
Love is their only happiness, yes, yes
But it’s all so easy
All you gotta do is try
Try a little tenderness
You've got to love her if you want her
Squeeze her
Don’t tease her
Never leave her
Get to her
Gotta try a little tenderness
Thats all you gotta do
You`ve got to love her
hold her Don't tease her
Never leave her
Make love to her
Hold her, man |
