If Teardrops Were Pennies   (Pioneer 118 )   Tommy Russell

OPENER - MIDDLE BREAK - CLOSER



You join hands and circle to the left around you go
Left allemande, come back a dosado
4 men star left, turn it once around
Turn thru, left allemande, you weave around the town
If teardrops were pennies, and heartaches were gold
Swing with your lady, promenade you know
I'd be oh so wealthy, with treasures untold
If teardrops were pennies, and heartaches were gold


FIGURE



Heads square thru 4 hands and go
With your corner lady do a dosado
Spin chain thru, girls circulate 2 times
Boys run to the right, and now bend the line
You slide thru, square thru 3/4 round
Swing your corner lady, promenade the town
*The love that you wanted would not have grown cold
If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold


TAG



If teardrops were pennies and heartaches were gold
