"Fortunate Son"

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"
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord

It ain`t me, it ain`t me
I ain`t no senator`s son, son
It ain`t me, it ain`t me
I ain`t no fortunate one, no

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, yes

It ain`t me, it ain`t me
I ain`t no millionaire`s son, no no
It ain`t me, it ain`t me
I ain`t no fortunate one, no

Yeah, some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war,
Lord And when you ask them "How much should we give?"
Ooh, they only answer "More, more, more," y`all

It ain`t me, it ain`t me
I ain`t no military son, son
It ain`t me, it ain`t me
I ain`t no fortunate one, one
It ain`t me, it ain`t me
I ain`t no fortunate one, no no no
It ain`t me, it ain`t me
I ain`t no fortunate son, no no no

Love Creedence Clearwater...
did you know they were using that on a wrangler jeans commercial over here because they thought the song sounded patriotic?
Makes me sick
