1933 - Lyrics World
She may be 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.
While she’s without them,
Try a little tenderness.
It's not just sentimental,
She has her grief and 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.
