Back In The USA
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 just touched down on an international runway
And it just feels good to be back in the U.S.A.
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, 'til I got back to the U.S.A.
Searchin' hard for a drive-in, looking for a corner café
Where hamburgers sizzle on an open grill night and day
And there's music on the jukebox like they play back in the U.S.A.
Well, I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
Anything that you want, they got it in the U.S.A.
Well, I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
Anything that you want, they got it in the U.S.A.
I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
(Right here in Pittsburgh)
I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
Said I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
I'm so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A.
Anything that you want, they got it in the U.S.A.
