How many times have you heard someone say |
|
"If I had his money, I could do things my way?" |
|
Little they know that it's so hard to find |
|
One rich man in a hundred with a satisfied mind. |
|
Once I was waitin' for fortune and fame |
|
Everything that I dreamed for to get a start in life's game |
|
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 my life is ended, my time has run out |
|
My trials and my loved ones, I'll leave them no doubt |
|
But one thing's for certain, when it comes my time |
|
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind |
|
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind |
