Written by Red Hayes & Jack Rhodes.


How many times have you heard someone say,
"If I had his money, I could do things my way."
But little they know, it抯 so hard to find
One rich man in ten with a satisfied mind.

Once I was living in fortune and fame,
Everything that I dreamed of to get a start in life抯 game.
Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime.
But I抦 richer by far with a satisfied mind.

慍ause money can抰 buy back your youth when you抮e old,
Or a friend when you抮e lonely
Or a love that抯 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抣l leave, there抯 no doubt.
But one thing for certain
When it comes my time,
I抣l leave this old world
With a satisfied mind.
