Satisfied Mind
Joan Baez
How many times have you heard someone say If I had his money I would do things my way How little they know it's so hard to find One rich man in a hundred with a satisfied mind Once I was waiting in fortune and fame Everything I could dream of to get a start in life's game Then suddenly it hap-pened I lost every dime But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind No 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 And the world's richest man is a pauper at times Compared to the man with a satisfied mind When my life is over and my time has run out My friends and my loved ones I'll leave there's no doubt But there's one thing for cer-tain when it comes my time I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
