John Fogerty, Foo Fighters - Fortunate Son (2013) lyrics

[John Fogerty, Foo Fighters - Fortunate Son 2013 lyrics]

Some folks are born made to wave the flag
Ooh the red, white and blue
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, don't they help themselves, y'all
But when the taxman comes to the door
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale
Yeah

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, yeah

Yeah, some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war, Lord
But when you ask 'em
"How much should we give?"
Ooh, they only answer "More, more, more!"

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

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's one, no
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate son, no

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

It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no senator's one, no
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate son, yeah
