There's more than these lyrics to the song - it's a nine minute track, and after the conclusion of these lyrics around 3:53, there's something of a 3:00+ pause. Then, you get the popping of a record before the following comes in, as near as I can interpret it:
Oh, she made me wear it
Those young girls who do worry
Wearing the same old shiny dress
But when she is worried
Try a little tenderness
You know she's waiting
Just anticipating
Things she'll never possess
But while she's the waiting
Try a little tenderness
That's all you gotta do
It's not just sentimental, no no no
???
But she suffered last spoke so gentle
It makes it easy to bear
You won't regret it, no no no
Young girls that don't forget it
Love is their only happiness
But its so easy
All you gotta do is try a little tenderness
Try a little tenderness
All you gotta do is bear
Just squeeze her
Don't tease her
Never leave her
Just squeeze her
Don't tease her
Never leave her
Gotta hold her
Try a little tenderness

The 'try a little tenderness' lyrics are an obvious reference (theft, even) from the clasic Otis Redding song "Try a Little Tenderness."
