Fortunate Son

Some folks are born made to wave the flag

Oh, they're red, white and blue

But when the band plays, 'Hail To The Chief'

They point the cannon right at you

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

Some folks are born silver spoon in hand

Oh, don't they help themselves

But when the tax man comes to the door

Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale

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

Some folks inherit star spangled eyes

Oh, they will send you down to war

And when you ask them how much should we give?

They always answer more and more

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

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate son
