How many times
Have you heard someone say
If I had his money
I'd 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 living
In fortune and fame
And all that I dreamed of
To get a start in life's game
Then suddenly it happened
I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far
With a satisfied mind
'cause money won't buy back
The youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely
Or a hearts that's grown cold
The wealthiest person
Is a pauper at times
Compared to the man
With a satisfied mind
