One Teardrop At A Time

(album: Wanda Jackson Sings Country Songs - 1965)

(One teardrop, one teardrop)

I know that I've cried a lot today
And my heart's gonna hurt the same old way
'Cause I'm losing the love I thought was mine
The heartaches come one teardrop at a time

One teardrop at a time keeps telling me
That it won't be long until you'll be leaving me
When you go, I'm gonna cry one more time
I'll take back my heart one teardrop at a time

No matter how many tears I cry
That old familiar feeling stays inside
My love for you won't leave just any time
I'll cry you from my heart one teardrop at a time

One teardrop at a time keeps telling me
That it won't be long until you'll be leaving me
When you go, I'm gonna cry one more time
I'll take back my heart one teardrop at a time

(One teardrop, one teardrop)
