Back In The U.S.A.
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Oh well, oh well, I feel so good today
We touched ground on an international runway
Jet propelled back home, from over the seas to the USA
New York, Los Angeles, oh, how I yearned for you
Detroit, Chicago, Chattanooga, Baton Rouge
Let alone just to be at my home back in ol' St. Lou
Did I miss the skyscrapers, did I miss the long freeway?
From the coast of California to the shores of Delaware Bay
You can bet your life I did, till I got back to the USA
Looking hard for a drive-in, searching for a corner café
Where hamburgers sizzle on an open grill night and day
Yeah, and a juke-box jumping with records like in the USA
Well, I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA
Yes. I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA
Anything you want, we got right here in the USA
