Back in the U.S.A. Songtext
von Chuck Berry

Uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah

Oh, well, oh, well, I feel so good today (uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah)
We just touched ground on an international runway (uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah)
Jet propelled back home, from overseas to the U.S.A. (oh, yeah, oh, yeah)

New York, Los Angeles, oh, how I yearned for you (uh-huh-huh, mm-huh)
Detroit, Chicago, Chattanooga, Baton Rouge (uh-huh-huh, mm-huh)
Let alone just to be at my home back in ol′ St. Lou' (mm-huh, mm-huh)


Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Did I miss the skyscrapers, did I miss the long freeway? (Uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah)
From the coast of California to the shores of Delaware Bay (uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah)
You can bet your life I did, till I got back in the U.S.A. (oh, yeah, oh, yeah)

Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Uh-huh-huh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Lookin′ hard for a drive-in, searching for a corner café (uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah)
Where hamburgers sizzle on an open grill night and day (uh-huh-huh, oh, yeah)
Yeah, and the juke-box jumping with records like in the U.S.A. (oh, yeah, oh, yeah)

Well, I'm so glad I'm livin′ in the U.S.A. (uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yes, I′m so glad I'm livin′ in the U.S.A. (uh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Anything you want, they got right here in the U.S.A. (mm-huh, mm-huh)

I'm so glad I′m livin' in the U.S.A. (mm-huh, mm-huh)
Yes, I′m so glad I'm livin' in the U.S.A. (mm-huh, mm-huh)
