[Treat Her Gently]
[Verse 1]
Treat her gently, treat her kind
She doesn't even know her own mind
Treat her simply, take it slow
Make it easy and let her know
You'll never find another way

[Lonely Old People]
[Verse 2]
Here we sit two lonely old people
Eking our lives away
Bit by bit two lonely old people
Keeping the time of day
Here we sit out of breath
And nobody asked us to play
Old people's home for the day
Nobody asked us to play

[Treat Her Gently]
[Verse 3]
So treat her gently, treat her kind
She doesn't even know her own mind
Treat her simply, make it slow
Take it easy and let her know
You'll never find another way

[Lonely Old People]
[Verse 4]
Here we sit two lonely old people
Eking our lives away
Bit by bit, two lonely old people
Keeping the time of day
Here we sit out of breath
And nobody asked us to play
Old people's home for the day
Nobody asked us to play

Paul McCartney and Wings, also known simply as Wings, were an Anglo-American rock band formed in 1971 by former Beatle Paul McCartney with his wife Linda McCartney on keyboards, session drummer Denny Seiwell, and former Moody Blues guitarist Denny Laine. Wings were noted for frequent personnel changes as well as commercial success, going through three lead guitarists and four drummers. However, the core trio of the McCartneys and Laine remained intact throughout the group’s existence until 1981.
