Harry Woods — Try a Little Tenderness

(Verse) In the hustle of today We're all inclined to miss Those little things that mean so much A word, a smile, a kiss When a woman loves a man He's a hero in her eyes And a hero he can always be If he can realize (Chorus) She may get weary Women do get weary Wearing the same shabby dress And when she's weary Try a little tenderness You know she's waiting Just anticipating Things she may never possess But while she's waiting Try a little tenderness It's not just sentimental She has her grief and her care And a word that's soft and gentle Makes it easier to bear You won't regret it Women don't forget it Love is their whole happiness It's all so easy Try a little tenderness
