Cassia Eller Try A Little Tenderness lyrics

Oh, she may be weary
And young girls they do get weary
Wearing that same old shabby dress, yeah
But when she gets weary try a little tenderness, yeah

You know she's waiting, just anticipating
For things that she may never, never, never, possess
But while she's there waiting without them, yeah
Try a little tenderness
(That's all you've gotta do)

It's not just sentimental no, no
She has her grief and care, yeah
But the soft words, they all spoke so gently, yeah
It makes it easier, easier to bear

You won't regret it no, no

Young girls they don't forget it
Love is their whole happiness, yeah
But it's all so easy
All you've gotta do is try

Try a little tenderness
All you've gotta, do it man
Hold on the way you wanna

Squeeze her
Don't tease her
Never leave her
You've gotta try to find a little tenderness
