Sonny James - A Satisfied Mind

Copied!edit Lyrics
original text at lyrnow.com/1632192
Verse 1
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

Verse 2
Once I was winnin' in fortune and fame
Everything that I'd dreamed for to get a start in life's game
But suddenly it happened, I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind

Verse 3
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

Verse 4
When life has ended, my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones I'll leave, there's no doubt
But one thing for certain, when it comes my time
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind

Outro
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
