Lyrics
Back in the USA
(Oh, flew across the pond)
From Germany straight to LA,
Worked on stages night and day,
And after all my job was done,
To Boston from LA,
Five hours bored on that long flight,
Touch down, extend my stay to see my family again
Who live in the Ocean State.
Oh, flew across the pond just to have some fun,
But nothing beats the place where my family runs,
Take me back to the USA.
I'm back in the USA,
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the USA, yeah.
Been away so long, I nearly lost my mind,
Can't wait to see those faces, it's been too much time,
Back to where my grandkids play.
I'm back in the USA,
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the USA, oh.
Well, the East Coast grandkids really knock me out,
And the Midwest ones make me scream and shout,
And the Northern tales keep me laughing all the while,
That Southern charm always brings a smile.
(Oh, come on!)
Mmm, I sit outside in the heat under the parasol,
Sipping the mineral water warmed by the sunny shade,
Balancing the comfort with a loving care,
That's the life where family's near.
I'm back in the USA,
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the USA.
Well, the East Coast grandkids really knock me out,
And the Midwest ones make me scream and shout,
And the Northern tales keep me laughing all the while,
That Southern charm always brings a smile.
Mmm, it's too cold in here, too hot out there,
Crank the AC, feel that chilly air,
Balancing the comfort with a loving care,
That's the life where family's near.
I'm back in the USA,
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the USA.
Mmm, I'm back in the USA,
You don't know how lucky you are, boy,
Back in the USA.
