Dickey Lee Little Bitty Tear Lyrics:
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.

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.

[Short instrumental break.]

I said I'd laugh when you left me.
Full of 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.

[Short instrumental break.]

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.

Then 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.

[Fade.]
A little bitty tear let me down.
A little bitty...
