A Little Bitty Tear

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
