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 youIt 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 oneSome 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 saleIt 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 oneSome 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, moreIt 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 oneIt 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
