[Verse]
G F
Some folks are born, made to wave the flag
C G
Ooh they're red white and blue
G F
And when the band plays hail to the chief
C G
Ooh they point the cannons at you, y'all
[Chorus]
G D C G
It aint me, It aint me, I aint no senators son y'all
G D C G
It aint me, It aint me, I aint no fortunate one , no
[Verse]
G F
Some folks are born, silver spoon in hand
C G
Lord they don't help themselves, y'all
G F
But when the tax man comes to the door
C G
Lord the house looks like a rummage sale yeah
[Chorus]
G D C G
It aint me, It aint me I aint no millionaires son, no
G D C G
It aint me, It aint me I aint no fortunate one, no
[Verse]
G F
Some folks inherit star spangled eyes
C G
Ooh they send you down to war y'all
G F
And when you ask ‘em “How much should we give?”
C G
Their only answer is “more, more, more”
[Chorus]
G F
It aint me, It aint me
C G
I'm no fortunate one no
