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
But suddenly it happened
I lost every dime
But I'm richer by far
With a satisfied mind
Money can't buy back
Your youth when you're old
Or a friend when you're loney
or a love that's grown cold
The wealthiest person, 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 love ones I'll leave there ain't no doubt
But one thing for certain
When it comes my time
I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind.
How many times

I could do things my way
