z+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", oh, they point the cannon at you, Lord,

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no senator's 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? oh. But when the taxman come to the door, Lord, the house look a 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.

Yeh, some folks inherit star spangled eyes, ooh, they send you down to war, Lord, And when you ask them, how much should we give, oh, they only answer, more, more, more, yoh,

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no military son, SON, NO It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one, NO NO

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, son son son

I chose this song because it had a good beat and I liked the lyrics. The songs message was the people who had the money sent there children to college but the poor people got drafted and had to go to war. So it is called fortunate son because if you were fortunate enough you did not have to go. The lyrics provoke listeners to take some action because when it says "it ain't me I ain't no senator's son." A reaction might be it's not fair that only the poor men that don't have enough money to go to college get drafted.
