A little bitty tear let me down,
spoiled my act as a clown.
I had it made up not to make a frown,
oh, but a little bitty tear let me down.

When you said you were leaving to-morrow,
that today was our last day,
I said there’d be no sorrow,
that I’d laugh when you walked a-way.

A little bitty tear let me down,
spoiled my act as a clown.
I had it made up not to make a frown,
oh, 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’,
I’d wave good-bye 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,
oh, 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,
Til 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 to make a frown,
oh, but a little bitty tear let me down.

A little bitty tear let me down.
A little bitty tear let me down.
