Oh 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 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, 'til I got back to the USA



Looking hard for a drive-in, searching for a corner cafe?

Where hamburgers sizzle on an open grill night and day

Yeah, and a jukebox 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, they got it right here in the USA

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

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