Campbell Glen A Satisfied Mind lyrics

(As recorded by Glen Campbell)
(From the album `A Satisfied Mind`)

How many times have you heard someone say?
If I had his money I would do things my way
But little do they know that it`s so hard to find
One rich man in 10 with a satisfied mind

Well, once, I was wading in fortune and fame
Everything I`d ever hoped for to get a start in life`s game
Then suddenly it happened, well, I lost every dime
But I`m richer by far with a satisfied mind

Money won`t buy back your youth when you are old
Or a friend when you are lonely or a love that`s grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind

(Musical break)

Money won`t buy back your youth when you are old
Or a friend when you are lonely or a love that`s grown cold
The wealthiest person is a pauper at times
Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
