Burl Ives - A Little Bity Tear Lyrics

9.A LITTLE BITY TEAR

CHORUS: 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 todaywas our last day
I said there'd beno sorrow,
that I'd laugh when you walked away.

CHORUS:

I said I'd laugh when you left me
Pull a funnyas you went out the door
That I'd have anotherone waiting
And I'd wave goodbye as you go.

CHORUS:

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

CHORUS:A little bitty tear let me down,
spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not 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
