Creedence Clearwater Revival: 50 anos

Creendence Clearwater Revival: a banda de John Fogerty, elemento vital das convulsões das décadas de 60/70, cruzando as raízes folk com a energia do rock'n'roll, está a comemorar os seus 50 anos. E com uma novidade muito especial: Fortunate Son, um dos seus temas mais emblemáticos (consagrado como hino dos movimentos contra a guerra do Vietname), tem agora direito a teledisco — passando e presente aliados num vibrante simbolismo.

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",
Ooh, they point the cannon at you, Lord,

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,

Yeah!
Some folks are born silver spoon in hand,
Lord, don't they help themselves, oh.
But when the taxman comes to the door,
Lord, the house looks like a rummage sale, yes,

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no millionaire's son, no.
It ain't me, it ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one, no.

Some folks inherit star spangled eyes,
Ooh, they send you down to war, Lord,
And when you ask them, "How much should we give?"
Ooh, they only answer More! more! more! yoh,

It ain't me, it ain't me, I ain't no military son, son.
It ain't me, it ain't me; I ain't no fortunate one, 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,
