If Teardrops Were Pennies - Buddy Miller/Elizabeth Cook
Written by:Owens
Elizabeth Cook:An acre of diamonds
I'd offer to you
A solid gold mansion an airplane or two
Buddy Miller:This whole world
Would be yours to have and to hold
Teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold
Both: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
Buddy Miller:The tears that have
Fallen won't buy you a thing
The heartaches you 'caused me won't pay for a ring
Elizabeth Cook:The love that
I wanted would not have grown cold
Both: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
Buddy Miller:But teardrops aren't pennies
Elizabeth Cook:And heartaches aren't gold
