Johnny Cash - A Satisfied Mind Lyrics

Complimentary "A Satisfied Mind" Ringtone

How many times 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 dreamed for, 
to get a start in life’s game. 
Then suddenly it happened, 
I lost every dime. 
But I’m richer by far 
with a satisfied mind. 

Money cant 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 popper at times. 
Compared to the man 
with a satisfied mind. 

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

How many times 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.
