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 at you, Lord
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no senator's son
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no fortunate one
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand,
Lord, they don't help themselves
But when the tax man comes to the door
It looks like a rummage sale, yes
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no millionaire's son
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no fortunate one
Some folks are born with star-spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war
And when you ask them "How much should we give?"
They only answer "More! More! More!"
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no military son
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no fortunate one
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no fortunate one
It ain't me, it ain't me, I'm no fortunate son
