Try A Little Tenderness - The Commitments

Oh she may be weary

And young girls they do get wearied

Wearing that same old shaggy dress

But when she gets weary

Try a little tenderness

You know she's waiting; just anticipating

The things that she's never never never never possesses

But while she's there waiting without them

Try just a little bit of tenderness

That's all you got to do (this is for you)

It's not just sentimental no no

She has her grief and her care

But soft words they are spoke so gentle

It makes it easier easier to bear

You won't regret it no no

Young girls; they never forget it

Love is their only happiness

But it is so so easy

All you got to do is try

Try a little tenderness

Squeeze her don't you tease her never leave her

You've got to try a little tenderness

Squeeze her don't you tease her never leave her

You've got to try a little tenderness

You've go to squeeze her

Don't you tease her never leave her

You've got to try a little tenderness

You've go to squeeze her

Don't you tease her never leave her

You've got to try a little tenderness

You've go to squeeze her

Don't you tease her never leave her any more

You've got to try a little tenderness

You've go to squeeze her

Never leave her

You've got to try a little tenderness
