Tenderness (unreleased version) Sam Cooke

Be nice to her
Whenever you can
And as you cross the street
Always hold her hand

You'll find out
Tenderness goes a long, long way

So smile at her
When she does something wrong
Be there to pick her up
And make her strong

You'll find out
Tenderness goes a long, long way

Mmm, if you'll be kind
Sometimes she'll be blind
To the wrong things you might do
If you treat her good
Oh the way that you should
She'll see the goodness in you

So be sweet to her
And gentle too
And you'll find out
What tenderness can do
