Satisfied Mind

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
