[Dm]
[Em] [G]
I'm going to sing a little bit of this song.
Some folks are born [F] made to wave the [C] flag.
Ooh, they're red, [G] white, and blue.
And when the band [F] plays, they'll do the cheat.
[C] Ooh, they point the [G] cannon at you.
Now, it ain't me.
[D] It ain't me.
[C] I ain't no Senator [G] Sars.
It ain't me.
[D] It ain't me.
[C] I ain't no fortune [G] in war.
Some folks are born [F] silver spoon in [C] hand.
Y'all don't help [G] themselves, y'all.
But when the tax man [F] comes, [C] y'all.
Y'all lookin' like [G] a Roman sage, yes.
It ain't me.
[D] It ain't me.
[C] I ain't no millionaire [G] Sars.
It ain't me.
[D] It ain't me.
[C] I ain't no fortune [G] in war.

[C] [G]
Yeah, some folks inherit [F] stock.
[C] Ooh, they send you [G] down to war, y'all.
Now, when you ask [F] them, how much should we [C] give?
Ooh, they're gonna [G] answer, more, more, more, y'all.
It ain't me.
[D] It ain't me.
[C] I ain't no [G] military Sars.
It ain't [D] me.
It ain't [C] me.
I ain't no [G] fortune in war.
It ain't me.
[D] It ain't [C] me.
I ain't no fortune [G] in war.
It ain't me.
[D] It ain't [C] me.
I ain't [G] no fortune in sorrow.
It ain't me.
