Fortunate Son Lyrics

Fortunate Son lyrics

Some folks are born made to wave the flag

Ooh, they're red, white and blue, yeah

And when the band plays, "Hail To The Chief"

Ooh, they point the cannon at you



It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no senator's son, no

It ain't me, it ain't me

I ain't no fortunate one



Some folks are born silver spoon in hand

Lord, why don't they help themselves?

But when the tax man come to the door

Lord, the house look 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



Some folks inherit star spangled eyes

Ooh, they send you down to war

And when you ask them, how much should we give

You they only answer, more, more, 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 one
