A Satisfied Mind - Ella Fitzgerald

Lyrics by：Ella Fitzgerald

Composed by：Ella Fitzgerald

Aaaaa aaaa

How many times have 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 ten with a satisfied mind

Aaaaa

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

Aaaaa

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's for certain

When it comes my time

I'll leave this old world

With a satisfied mind

I'll leave this old world

With a satisfied mind aaa

Aaaaa
