Peggy Lee - Try A Little Tenderness lyrics

Oh, she may get weary
Them young girls, they do get weary
Wearing that same old shaggy dress,  yeah
But when she gets weary
Try a little tenderness oh may may mmm

You know she's waiting just anticipating
The thing that you’ll
Never never never never possess, yeah, yeah
But while she's waiting,  and without them
Try a little tenderness
(that's all you gotta do)
It’s not just sentimental, no no no
She has her grief and care, yeah, yeah yeah
But the soft words they are
Spoke so gentle, yeah, yeah
It makes it easier, easier to bear, yeah
Yeah, yeah

You won't regret it, no
Young girls, they don't forget it
Love is their whole happiness
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
But, it's all so easy
All you gotta do is try

Try a little tenderness, yeah
All you gotta do is man
Hold her where you want her

Squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave her
Get to her, got to try
Try a little tenderness, ooh yeah
You got to know how to love her, man

Get to her you've got to
Squeeze her, don't tease her, never leave
You've got to hold her and rub her softly
Try a little tenderness, yeah, yeah
You’ve got to rub against her, man
Get to her don’t bruise her, no no
Please her, don't leave her, squeeze her
Oh yeah nah nah nah try
Try a little tenderness, oh yeah, yeah
Squeeze her
Don’t tease her, never leave her
Try try try yeah
Tenderness oh yeah, you've got to
You've got to yeah, yeah
Rub her gentle man, don't bruise her no no
You’ve got to love her, tease her
Squeeze her yeah try a little tenderness
