Intro: A little bitty tear let me down, spoiled my act as a clown, I had it made up not to 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 would be no sorrow, that I'd laugh when you walked away. But a little bitty tear let me down, 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 said I'd laugh when you left me, pull a funny as you went out the door, That I'd have another one waitin', and I'd wave goodbye as you go. But a little bitty tear let me down, 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, tilâ?? you walked with your grip through the door. Then, a little bitty tear let me down, spoiled my act as a clown, I had it made up not to make a frown, but a little bitty tear let me down; ohâ?¦â?¦ A little bitty tear let me down. (x2 and Fade)
