Try A Little Tenderness

I may (be) again weary,
Women do get weary,
Wearin’ the same shabby dress
But the one who’s weary,
try a little, try a little tenderness, ohhh…..
I may be waiting,
gee, often anticipating
all of the things I may never possess -
hm - but while I’m waiting,
try a little, try a little tenderness.
I – may be
I may be sin a major
but I wanna say that I had my grieves and I had my care
And just a good word – soft and gentle –
makes it – makes it easier – easier to bear.
Now I might forget it,
Oh, my darlin’,
let me forget it,
now come on home, home happiness
hmm, it’s so – so easy, try a little, oh , try a little tenderness,
tender- tender- tenderness
