Fortunate Son

Some folks are born made to wave the flag

Ooh, the red, white and blue

And when the band plays, Hail to the Chief

They point the cannon right at you, what?

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

Lord, they really help themselves?

But when the tax man comes to the door

Lord, the house looks a rummage sale, well

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no millionaire's son, no

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no fortunate one, no, no

Some folks inherit star spangled eyes

Ooh, they send you down to war

And when you ask 'em, how much should I give?

Oh, they only answer, more, well

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no military son, no

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no fortunate one, no, no

It ain't me, it ain't me, no

It ain't me, it'll never be me

I ain't no fortunate one, no, no
