A Satisfied Mind - Carl & Pearl Butler

作词：R. Hayes/J. Rhodes

作曲：R. Hayes/J. Rhodes

How many times have you heard someone say

If I had his money I could 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 in fortune and fame

Everything that I dreamed for

To get a start in life's game

But suddenly it happened that I lost every dime

But 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

When life has ended my time has run out

My friends and my loved ones I'll leave them no doubt

But this one thing for certain when it comes my time

I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
