THE “SILENT MAJORITY”

  • November 3, Nixon televised his appeal to the great “silent majority,” who presumably supported the war.
  • Aimed largely at middle class Americans who sought law and order;
  • Symbolized the rise of a conservative backlash against liberalism

BALLAD OF THE GREEN BERETS BY BARRY SADLER

    • Fighting soldiers from the sky
    • Fearless men who jump and die
    • Men who mean just what they say
    • The brave men of the Green Beret

 

    • Silver wings upon their chest
    • These are men, America’s best
    • One hundred men we’ll test today
    • But only three win the Green Beret

 

    • Trained to live, off nature’s land
    • Trained in combat, hand to hand
    • Men who fight by night and day
    • Courage deep, from the Green Beret

 

 

    • Silver wings upon their chest
    • These are men, America’s best
    • One hundred men we’ll test today
    • But only three win the Green Beret

 

    • Back at home a young wife waits
    • Her Green Beret has met his fate
    • He has died for those oppressed
    • Leaving her this last request

 

  • Put silver wings on my son’s chest
  • Make him one of America’s best
  • He’ll be a man they’ll test one day
  • Have him win the Green Beret

FORTUNATE SON, CCR-1969

  • 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,

    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, no, no.
    It ain’t me, it ain’t me,
    I ain’t no fortunate one, no.

    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, SON, NO
    It ain’t me, it ain’t me,
    I ain’t no fortunate one, NO NO

    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, son son son

OHIO, CSNY-1974
