If Teardrops Were Pennies Lyrics - Porter Wagoner

An acre of diamonds I'd offer to you 

A solid gold mansion, an airplane or two 

This whole world would be yours to have and to hold 

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold 

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold 

I'd have all the riches my pockets would hold 

I'd be, oh, so wealthy with treasures untold 

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold 

The tears that have fallen won't buy you a thing 

The heartaches you've caused me won't pay for a ring 

The love that I wanted would not have grown cold 

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold 

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold 

I'd have all the riches my pockets would hold 

I'd be, oh, so wealthy with treasures untold 

If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold
