Satisfied Mind Songtext
von The Walkabouts

How many times
Have you heard someone say
"If I had his money
I could do things my way"?

Little they know
That it′s so hard to find
One rich man in ten
With a satisfied mind

Once I was waitin'
For fortune and fame
Everything that I dreamed for
To get a start in life′s game

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 lonely
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 ended
My time has run out
My trials and my loved ones
I′ll leave them no doubt

But one thing's for certain
When it comes my time
I′ll leave this old world
With a satisfied mind

I'll leave this old world
With a satisfied mind
