MC5 - Back In The USA lyrics

rate me

Well, oh well, I feel so good today

We just touched ground on an international runway

Jet propelled back home from overseas to the USA

New York, Los Angeles, oh how I yearned for you

Detroit, Chicago, Chattanooga, Baton Rouge

Let alone just to be back in Chuck Berry's old Saint Lou (Let me hear it once more!)

/ INSTRUMENTAL /

Did I miss the skyscrapers, did I miss the long freeway

From the coast of California to the shores of the Delaware Bay ?

Well, you can bet your life I did 'til I got back in the USA

(Come on, boy!)

/ INSTRUMENTAL /

Lookin' hard for a drive-in, searchin' for a corner café

Where hamburgers sizzle on an open grill, night and day

Yes, and a jukebox jumpin' with 'Welcome back in the USA'

I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA

I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA

Anything you want, they got it right here in the USA

I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA

I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA

Anything you want, they got it right here in the USA
