Fortunate Son Lyrics

Some folks are born made to wave the flag 

 Yeah, the red, white, and blue 

 When the band plays 'Hail To The Chief' 

 Yeah, they'll point the cannon at you 

 

 It ain't me, it ain't me 

 I'm no millionaire's son 

 It ain't me, it ain't me 

 I ain't no fortunate one 

 

 Some folks are born silver spoon in hand 

 Well, they help themselves, yeah 

 When the taxman comes to the door 

 House looks a 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, no 

 

 Some folks inherit star spangled eyes 

 Yeah, when they send you down to war 

 Well, when you ask them how much you should give 

 Yeah, it's always more, more, more 

 

 It ain't me, it ain't me 

 I ain't no senator's son 

 It ain't me, it ain't me 

 I'm no fortunate one 

 

 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 son 

 Take it away...
