[Verse 1]
How many times have you heard someone say
If I had his money, oh I would do things my way
But little they know that, it's so hard to find
[Verse 2]
One rich man or woman with a satisfied mind
Oh once I was lucky in fortune and fame
I had all that I needed to make a start in life's game
[Verse 3]
Then suddenly it happened
I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far, with a satisfied mind
Oh money can't buy back your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely, or a heart that's gone cold
[Verse 4]
The healthiest person is a poor person at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
When my life is over and my time has run out
My friends and relations, well I leave them no doubt
[Verse 5]
But one thing's for certain
When it comes to my time
I will leave this world with a satisfied mind
Oh I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
