Satisfied Mind Songtext
How many times have you heard someone say:

If I had his money I could do things my way

But little they know that it's so hard to find

One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind


Once I was winning in fortune and fame

Everything I could wish for to get a start in life's game,

Then suddenly it happend, 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

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 over, my time has run out

My friends and my loved ones will weep, there's no doubt

But one thing's for certain, when it comes my time

I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
