How many times have you heard someone say If I had his money I could do things my way But little they know, it's so hard to find One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind. Well, once I was waiting on fortune and fame Everything that I dreamed for turned to start in life's game Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind. Money won't buy back your youth when you're old Or a friend when you're lonely or a love that's grown cold The wealthiest person's a pauper at times Compared to the man with a satisfied mind. When my life has ended my time has run out My friends and my loved ones I'll leave there's no doubt But one thing for certain when it comes my time I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind. I'm gonna leave this old world with a satisfied mind...
