A little bitty tear let me down, spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not make a frown, but a little bitty tear let me down
You said you were leaving tomorrow
That today was our last day
I said there'd be no sorrow, that I'd laugh when you walked away
A little bitty tear let me down, spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not make a frown, but a little bitty tear let me down
I said I'd laugh when you left me
Pull a funny as you went out the door
That I'd have another waiting
And I'd wave goodbye as you go
A little bitty tear let me down, spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not make a frown, but a little bitty tear let me down
Everything went like a planned it
And really put on quite a show
In my heart I felt I could stand it
Till you walked with your *grip* through the door
A little bitty tear let me down, spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not make a frown, but a little bitty tear let me down
A little bitty tear let me down
