Wealth can get you fancy cars and diamond rings,
Sure, money can buy you all those things!
Winning the lottery would sure be grand,
But I like it just the way I am.

Having money can get you friends,
But what happens when it all ends?
They turn away when you're in a jam,
No thank you, I'll stay like I am!

Prestige comes along with all that cash,
You get invited to that high society bash!
They might even start calling you 'Mam,
I think I'll be just like I am.

All the prominence that money brings,
Can't compare to God given things.
Love, truth, loyalty, and freedom,
I'm happy just to be the way I am!

I don't have a lot of wealth or money,
And some people might think this is funny. 
I'm rich beyond what anyone can imagine,
And I'm satisfied just the way I am!
