Try a Little Tenderness - Clare Teal

Try a Little Tenderness Lyrics

Oh, she may be weary
And young girls, they do get weary
Wearing the same old shabby dress, oh yeah
Oh, when she gets weary
Try a little tenderness, oh yes, oh yes, oh
You know she's waiting, oh, just anticipating, oh
For the things she'll never possess, oh no, no
Oh, while she's there waiting, there without them
Try, oh just a little, oh just a little, little, little tenderness
That's what I said, a little tenderness
Oh, na, na, na, na, na, na
It's all you got to do, it's not
Oh, just it don't mean to know
She has, she has, she has her griefs and cares, oh
But the soft words, way he spoke so gentle, yeah
And it makes it easier, easier to bear
Hey, you won't regret it, no
Them young girls, they don't forget it

Love is their own, their own happiness
Oh, but it's all, it's all so simple now
All you got to do is try a little tenderness
Oh, won't you show her, won't you show it
That you love her?
Hey, you wanna squeeze her, don't tease her
Never leave her, you've gotta, won't you, won't you try
Just try a little tenderness
Hey, you gotta show it that you want it
No wanna [Incomprehensible] now
Squeeze her, don't tease her
Never leave her, hold her, grab her softly now
And try a little tenderness
Hey, you gotta listen to me
Don't leave her, don't cheat her now
Squeeze her, don't cheat her
Never leave her, gotta show it, na, na, na, hey
Hey, hey, you gotta know what to do
Don't be a fool, you need to try it now
Just try a little tenderness
A little tenderness
Just take it from me
You don't wanna let her leave, oh no
Squeeze her, don't tease, never leave
You've gotta, won't you try?
Just try, just try a little tenderness
Is there a witness in the building tonight, hey, hey
You've gotta, won't you, won't you try?
Just try a little tenderness
Sim, sim, try a little tender, tender, tenderness
You wanna squeeze her, don't tease her
Never leave her, hold her, grab her softly now
Just try a little, just try a little, just try a little, oh no
Hey, hey, hey, just try, just try, just try, ooh
You wanna squeeze her, don't tease her
Can you hear what I'm saying?
'Cos even won't you just, just try, oh
