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 livining, 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


[Instrumental]


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, and my time has run out

My friends and my loved ones, I'll leave 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
