First part, Then: someone denying he's lead a priviledged life?
Today: Perhaps a Senator's son denying he got special treatment?:

"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,"


This part is pretty clear, Then: critical of those practicing conspicuous comsumption, except when the tax man comes around. Today: Millionaires complaining of high taxes? Complaints about the 'Death Tax'?


"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.
It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one, no."


The last part, then as now, poor youths going off to war to protect foreign investments of the rich:

"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, It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no fortunate one,
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, no no no,"
