Johnny Cash - A Satisfied Mind lyrics
rate me<span class="feat">(originally by Porter Wagoner)</span><br>
<br>
How many times have<br />
You heard someone say<br />
If I had his money<br />
I could do things my way<br />
<br />
But little they know<br />
That it's so hard to find<br />
One rich man in ten<br />
With a satisfied mind<br />
<br />
Once I was winning<br />
In fortune and fame<br />
Everything that I dreamed for<br />
To get a start in life's game<br />
<br />
Then suddenly it happened<br />
I lost every dime<br />
But I'm richer by far<br />
With a satisfied mind<br />
<br />
Money can't buy back<br />
Your youth when you're old<br />
Or a friend when you're lonely<br />
Or a love that's grown cold<br />
<br />
The wealthiest person<br />
Is a pauper at times<br />
Compared to the man<br />
With a satisfied mind<br />
<br />
When my life has ended<br />
And my time has run out<br />
My friends and my loved ones<br />
I'll leave there's no doubt<br />
<br />
But one thing's for certain<br />
When it comes my time<br />
I'll leave this old world<br />
With a satisfied mind<br />
<br />
How many times have<br />
You heard someone say<br />
If I had his money<br />
I could do things my way<br />
<br />
But little they know<br />
That it's so hard to find<br />
One rich man in ten<br />
With a satisfied mind
<br><br><br><br>
