If Teardrops Were Pennies Lyrics

Rosemary Clooney If Teardrops Were Pennies

If teadrops were pennies
And heartaches were gold
I'd have all the treasures
My pockets could hold

I'd be, oh, so wealthy
With treasure untold
If teardrops were pennies
And heartaches were gold

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

The tears that have fallen
Won't buy you a thing
The heartaches you caused me
Won't pay for a ring

The love that I wanted
Would not have grown cold
It teardrops were pennies
And heartaches were gold

If teardrops were pennies
And heartaches were gold
I'd have all the treasures
My pockets could hold

I'd be, oh, so wealthy
With treasure untold
If teardrops were pennies
And heartaches were gold
