"9,999,999 Tears"
Song
B-side"I Will Never Get Over You"

"9,999,999 Tears" is a single by American country music artist Dickey Lee. Released in November 1976, it was the third and final single from his album Angels, Roses and Rain. The song peaked at number 3 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles and Canadian RPM Country Tracks charts.[1] It also charted modestly on the pop charts of both nations.

The song marked a return to the Pop charts for Lee following a 10-year hiatus. In the interim he had begun a 10-year string of Country hits ending in 1981. "9,999,999 Tears" is among his greatest hits, and is arguably his best known song because it is his only hit to have charted on both the Pop and Country charts.
