by Lennon / McCartney
Flew in from Miami Beach BOAC,
Didn't get to bed last night.
All the way the paper bag was on my knee,
Man, I had a dreadful flight.
I'm back in the USSR
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the U.S.S.R.
Been away so long I hardly knew the place,
Gee, it's good to be back home.
Leave it till tomorrow to unpack my case,
Honey, disconnect the phone...
I'm back in the USSR
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the US, back in the US, back in the USSR!
Well these Ukraine girls really knock me out,
They leave the west behind.
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout,
That Georgia's always on my my my my my mi-ind!
(In background, "Oh, Paul", then instrumental)
I'm back in the USSR
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the USSR.
Well, these Ukraine girls really knock me out,
They leave the west behind.
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout,
That Georgia's always on my my my my my mi-ind!
Oh, show me round your snow-peaked mountains way down south,
Take me to your daddy's farm
Let me hear your balalaikas ringing out,
Come and keep your comrade warm.

You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the US
Back in the US
Back in the USSR.
Oh!
