|
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 |
|
But you know what |
|
A little bitty tear let me down |
|
It 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 walked out the door |
|
That I'd have another one waiting |
|
And I'd wave goodbye as you go |
|
But I lied |
|
A little bitty tear let me down |
|
It spoiled my act as a clown |
|
I had it made up not to make a frown |
|
But a little bitty tear let me down |
|
Everything went like |
|
I planned it |
|
And I really put on quite a show |
|
In my heart, |
|
I felt I could stand it |
|
Till you walked with your grip through the door |
|
And thenA little bitty tear let me down |
|
It spoiled my act as a clown |
|
I had it made up not to make a frown |
|
But a little bitty tear let me down |
|
I tell myself it don't matter |
|
I tell myself |
|
I don't care |
|
And I tell myself to stop crying |
|
But, darlin', |
|
I need you here' |
|
Cause you see |
|
A little bitty tear let me down |
|
It spoiled my act as a clown |
|
I had it made up not to make a frown |
|
But a little bitty tear let me down |
|
Girl, a little bitty tear let me down |
|
I said, a little bitty tear let me down |
|
Yes, a little bitty tear let me down |
