I've heard tell of millionaires

And billionaires and such

Who gathered all their treasures

And still did not have enough



If money could buy peace of mind

I guess they'd have it all

But all the money in the world

Wont'nt hold you when you fall



CHORUS: We've got a roof over our head

And the kids have all been fed

And the women I love most

Lies close beside me in our bead

Lord, give me the eyes to see

Exactly what it's worth

And I will be the richest man on earth



Lord, when I wish I had the things

That you gave someone else

I pray that you'll forgive me

For just thinkin' of myself



I haven't been as thankful

As I know I ought to be

I should be more then satisfied

With all you've given me



(REPEAT CHORUS)



Bridge: One thing is for certain

It don't matter when you die

If you had a million

Or if you just got by



(REPEAT CHORUS)



Yes, I will be the richest man on earth
