Credence Clearwater Revival is the soundtrack of my younger life. John Fogarty has a new record out, but this song is from a few years ago. Still singing anti-war songs.
Here is Credence on the Ed Sullivan show singing "Fortunate Son".
Some folks were born,
Made to wave the flag,
Ooh, the red white and blue.
And when the band plays "Hail to the Chief",
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, y'all.
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 were 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.
