spoiled my act as a clown.
I had it made up not to make a frown,
but a little bit of 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 bit of tear let me down
Spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown
But a little bit of tear let me down
I said I'd laugh when you left me
Full of funny as you went out the door
That I'd have another one waiting
And I'd wave goodbye as you go
But a little bit of tear let me down
Spoiled my act as a clown
I had it made up not to make a frown,
but a little bit of tear let me
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
a little bit of tear let me down
Spoiled my act as a clown
I had it laid up not to make a frown
But a little bit of tear let me down
Oh, a little bit of tear let me down
A little bit of tear let me down
