A Satisfied Mind Lyrics
A Satisfied Mind - Porter Wagoner
How many ti-imes ha-ave you heard someone say
If I had his money
I would do things my way
But little they know
That it's so hard to find
One rich man in te-en
With a satisfied mi-ind
Once I was wading in fortune and fame
Everything that I've dreamed for to get a start in li-ife's game
But suddenly it ha-appened
I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far-ar
With a satisfied mi-ind
Money can't buy-uy back your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're lonely
Or a love that's grown co-old
The wealthiest person
Is a pauper at times
Compared to the ma-an
With a satisfied mi-ind
When li-ife has ended
And my time has run out
My friends and my loved ones
I'll leave there's no doubt
But there's one thing for cer-ertain
When it comes my time
I'll leave this old wor-orld
With a satisfied mi-ind
