Fortunate Son

Some folks are born made to wave the flag

ooh, they're red, white and blue

And when the band plays "Hail To The Chief"

oh, they point the cannon at you, Lord

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no senator's son

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no fortunate one, no

Some folks are born silver spoon in hand

Lord, don't they help themselves, oh

But when the taxman come to the door

Lord, the house look a like a rummage sale, yes

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no millionaire's son

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no fortunate one, no

Yeah, some folks inherit star spangled eyes

ooh, they send you down to war, Lord

And when you ask them, how much should we give

oh, they only answer, more, more, more, yoh

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no military son

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no fortunate one

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no fortunate one, no no no

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no fortunate son, no no no
