on the international runway
Dead propel back home from overseas
Detroit, Chicago, Chattanooga,
How I long just to be at my home
Didn't miss the skyscrapers,
didn't miss the long freeway
From the coast of California
to the shores of the Delaware Bay
You can bet your life I didn't
till I got back in the U .S .A.
Lookin' hard for a drive -in,
searchin' for a corner cafe
Where the hamburgers sizzle
on a open grill night and day
And the jukebox jumpin' with records
Well, I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA
Well, I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA
Anything you want, you got it right,
Oh well, oh well, I feel so good today
Oh well, oh well, I feel so good today
Oh well, oh well, I'm a -livin' in the U .S .A.
