It ain't me, it ain't me
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no millionaire's son, no, no
Yeah, some folks inherit star spangled eyes
Ooh, they send you down to war, Lord
I ain't no fortunate one, no, no
It ain't me, it ain't me
And when the band plays, "Hail to the chief"
I ain't no senator's son
Lord, don't they help themselves?
It ain't me, it ain't me
It ain't me, it ain't me
It ain't me, it ain't me
Oh but, when the tax man come to the door
I ain't no fortunate one, no, no, no
I ain't no fortunate one, no
Oh, they point the cannon at you, Lord
I ain't no military son, son, no
And when you ask them, how much should we give
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand
Lord, the house look a like a rummage sale, yes
It ain't me, it ain't me
Oh, they only answer, more, more, more, oh
I ain't no fortunate one, no
It ain't me, it ain't me
