Try a Little Tenderness
Al Casey Combo Lyrics

Oh she may be weary
She might be tired or emotionally drained

Them young girls they do get wearied
Young girls often get tired or exhausted

Wearing that same old miniskirt dress
Continuously wearing the same outdated clothing

But when she gets weary
However, when she becomes tired

You try a little tenderness
You should show compassion and gentleness towards her

Oh man that
Oh, it's a challenging situation

Un hunh
Expressing agreement or understanding

I know she's waiting
I'm aware that she is patiently waiting

Just anticipating
Eagerly expecting or looking forward to something

The thing that you'll never never possess
The thing that you will never have or own

No no no
Absolutely not

But while she there waiting
But while she is waiting there

Try just a little bit of tenderness
Make an effort to show a small amount of kindness and empathy

That's all you got to do
It's as simple as that

Now it might be a little bit sentimental no
It may have a slight emotional and nostalgic value

But she has her greavs and care
However, she has her grievances and worries

But the soft words they are spoke so gentle
But the gentle words are spoken softly and tenderly

Yeah yeah yeah
Expressing agreement or affirmation

And it makes it easier to bear
It makes the burdens and challenges easier to handle

Oh she won't regret it
She will not feel remorseful about it

No no
Absolutely not

Them young girls they don't forget it
Young girls do not forget these acts of tenderness

Love is their whole happiness
Love is their entire source of happiness

But it's all so easy
But it's all straightforward

All you got to do is try
You just need to make an effort

Try a little tenderness
Show a small amount of compassion and consideration

Damn that hart (hard?)
Expressing frustration or difficulty

All you got to do is know how to love her
You just need to understand how to show love towards her

You've got to hold her
You must embrace her

Squeeze her
Hold her tightly

Never leave her
Never abandon or forsake her

Now get to her
Now approach her and make an effort

Got got got to try a little tenderness
You absolutely need to show some compassion and empathy

Yeah yeah
Expressing agreement or affirmation

Lord have mercy now
An exclamation expressing astonishment or desperation

All you got to do is take my advice
You just need to listen to my advice

You've got to hold her
You must embrace her

Don't squeeze her
But do not hold her too tightly

Never leave her
Never abandon or forsake her

You've got to hold her
You must embrace her

And never
And never

So you got to try a little tenderness
So you must show some compassion and empathy

A little tenderness
A small amount of compassion

A little tenderness
A small amount of compassion

A little tenderness
A small amount of compassion

You've got to
You must

Got to got to
Absolutely must

You've gotta hold her
You have to embrace her

Don't squeeze her
But do not hold her too tightly

Never leave her
Never abandon or forsake her

You got
You have

Got got got to
Absolutely must

Now now now
Emphasizing immediacy

Got got got to
Absolutely must

Try a little tenderness
Show a small amount of compassion and consideration

Ye
Yes
