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
