How many times have you heard someone say If I had his money I would do things my way? But little they know that it is so hard to find One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind Once I was winning in fortune and fame Everything that I dreamed for to get a start in life's game But suddenly it happened, I lost every dime But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind Money can'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 is a pauper at times Compared to the man with a satisfied mind When life has ended, my time has run out My friends and my loved ones I 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
