Lyrics

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"
They point the cannon right at you, Lord
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no senator's son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no
Some folks are an array of silver spoon in hand
Lord, they'd help themselves
But when the taxman come to the door
Their house is like a rummage sale, oh
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no
Some folks inherit star-spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war
But when you ask them, how much should we give
They only answer, "More, more, more"
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no military son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one
Look out
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no military son, son
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one, no
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
