Another quote about Vietnam War

Some folks are born made to wave the flag,
Ooh, that red, white, and blue.
And when the band plays "Hail to the Chief,"
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord,
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no senator's son, no.
It ain't me, it ain't me
I ain't no fortunate one.
