Try A Little Tenderness

I may get weary, women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
But to one who's weary, try a little
Try a little tenderness, oh, oh, oh

I may be waiting, just anticipating
All of the things I may never possess, hmm
But while I'm waiting, try a little
Try a little tenderness

Now 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
Hmm and it's so, so easy

Try a little
Oh, try a little tenderness
Tender, tender, tenderness
