Try a Little Tenderness Songtext
von Three Dog Night

Ooo she may be weary
Young girls they do get weary
Wearin′ that same old funky dress
But ooo while she gets weary, weary
Won't you try some ten-tenderness?

You know she′s there waitin'
And anticipatin'
For the things she′ll never, never have
Oh no, no
Ooo while she gets weary
Won′t you try, oh try some tenderness?
Mmm hmm hmm

And I know it, ha
Sentimental don't know why
She had love, she had her grief and care
But when ah, ha girl
Soft words were spoken
Make it easier, easy girl, ah ha, easier to bear


You know you won′t regret it, no ah
Young girls they don't forget it
Lovin′ the same old, same old happiness yeah, ha yeah
Ooo, while she get weary, weary
Won't you try, oh try some tenderness?
I feel good lovin′ in the mornin'

You got to hold her,
Squeeze her
Never leave her
You got to
You got to
You got to try some tenderness
I feel good love, yeah
I feel good love, ow yeah

You got to hold her
Squeeze her
Never leave her
Got to
Got to
Yeah, you got to
Try it now, try it, try it, try it, try some tenderness
In the mornin' you′ll feel good love


So I say
You got to hold her
Squeeze her
Never leave her
Sock it to me, sock it to me one more time

You got to try, hey yeah
I feel good love
In the mornin′ love
Great God, you must
You got to hold her
Squeeze her
Never leave her
