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