Lyrics
I may get weary, women do get weary
Wearing the same shabby dress
But to one who’s weary
Try a little, try a little tenderness
Oh, oh, oh
I may be waiting, just anticipating
All of the things I may never possess
Mmm, but while I’m waiting
Try a little, try a little tenderness
I may be, I may be sentimental but I wanna say
That I’ve had my griefs, oh, and I’ve had my cares
And just a good word, soft and gentle
Makes it, makes it easier, easier to bear
Now, I might forget it, oh, but don’t let me forget it
Love’s all my whole, whole happiness
Mmm, and it’s so, so easy
Try a little, oh, try a little tenderness
Tender, tender, tenderness
Català – Prova Una Mica De Tendresa
Em puc cansar, les dones es cansen
Portant sempre el mateix vestit gastat
Però per a algú que està cansat
Prova una mica, prova una mica de tendresa
Oh, oh, oh
Puc estar esperant, només anticipant
Totes les coses que mai puc posseir
Mmm, però mentre estic esperant
Prova una mica, prova una mica de tendresa
Puc ser, puc ser sentimental, però vull dir
Que he tingut les meves penes, oh, i he tingut les mevess preocupacions
I només una bona paraula, suau i delicada
Fa que sigui, fa que sigui més fàcil, més fàcil de suportar
Ara, podria ser que ho oblidés, oh, però no em deixis oblidar-ho
L’amor és la meva completa, completa felicitat
Mmm, i és tan, tan fàcil
Prova una mica, oh, prova una mica de tendresa
Tendre, tendre, tendresa
