In my life over time I’ve made lots of money
Provided all inside a home that’s good
Given children an education and care
Done after all said and done that I should
My life has not been a smooth ride at all
As all decisions depend upon others you love
Choices made those sometimes not top grade
Due to others and situations and God above
But generally I always did a good job through
Though some others might completely all agree
But one thing for sure and forever more
I always gave my best always and sincerely
I know men that are friends and millionaires
And with all they have still not happy heart and soul
After all said and done almost every one
Cant obtain with wealth real love as in days of old
They seek the priceless things money cannot buy
As money cannot buy priceless things its true
Priceless things that are gifts from God above
That only good loving hearts know have and knew
Money has never been my God or my master
I’ve been ridiculed for being in life of this view
But that’s the way I am and always have been
True love peace of mind and happiness would only do
Its been a hard and longest road I traveled in life
But I knew in my heart how for me it all must only be
My overwhelming search for these Gods gifts of simplicity
Has given me all I ever searched for my one destiny
I’ve kept the most precious values of my own father
As he had them all and kept them right to the grave
I was determined not to end up as he did in life
He died not achieving all in life he did so crave
Peace of mind real true love and absolute happiness
The very things money cannot and never will be able to buy
I have all the things money cannot buy in life at all
Thanks to God above I will never in life will deny
And all things my life I never will regret good and bad
As they all brought me right to where I am today
And my life is now more than ever so complete its true
I have today all the things money can never ever buy in any way  .
