Satisfied Mind Songtext
von David Allan Coe

How many time have
You heard someone say
"If I had his money
I could do things my way"?
But little they know
That it′s so hard to find
One rich man in ten
With a satisfied mind

Once I was winning
In fortune and fame
Everything that I'd dreamed of
To get a start in life′s game

Then suddenly you're a pauper
I lost everything
But I'm richer by far
With a satisfied mind


Money can′t buy back
Your years 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

Money can't buy back
Your years 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

How many time have
You heard someone say
If I had his money
I could do things my way


But little they know
That it's so hard to find
One rich man in ten
With a satisfied mind

Money can't buy back
