Lucinda Williams Lyrics for Song: Satisfied Mind
 Lyrics for Album: Ramblin' [1992]
 
 
 
 39570>How many times
 
 
 
 Have you heard someone say
 
 
 
 "If I had his money
 
 
 
 I'd do things my way"
 
 
 
 How little they know
 
 
 
 That it's so hard to find
 
 
 
 One rich man in a hundred
 
 
 
 With a satisfied mind
 
 
 
 Once I was living
 
 
 
 In fortune and fame
 
 
 
 And everything I could dream of
 
 
 
 To get a start in life's game
 
 
 
 And suddenly it happened
 
 
 
 I lost every dime
 
 
 
 But I'm richer by far
 
 
 
 With a satisfied mind
 
 
 
 No money can buy back
 
 
 
 Your youth when you're old
 
 
 
 Or a friend when you're lonely
 
 
 
 Or a heart that's grown cold
 
 
 
 And the world's richest man
 
 
 
 Is a pauper at times
 
 
 
 Compared to the man
 
 
 
 With a satisfied mind
 
 
 
 When my life is over
 
 
 
 And my time has run out
 
 
 
 My friends and my loved ones
 
 
 
 I'll leave, there's no doubt
 
 
 
 But there's one thing 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
