When 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 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 of funny as you went out the door That I'd have another one a waiting To 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 out like I planned it I really put on quite a show I thought that I was gonna stand it But when you've got 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
