Satisfied Mind

How many times have you heard someone say
If I had his money I'd 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 waiting fortune and fame
Everything that I dreamed for it started in life's game
But suddenly it happened I lost every dime
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
