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 that I dreamed for,
To get a start in lifes game
Then suddenly it happened,
I lost every dime
But Im 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
And my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones
Will leave, there's no doubt
But there's one thing for certain
When it comes my time
Ill leave this old world
With a satisfied mind
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
