Back in the u.s.s.r. Lyrics – George Martin
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Oooh, flew in from Miami Beach, B.O.A.C
Didn’t get to bed last night
On the way, the paper bag was on my knee
Man, I had a dreadful flight
[Chorus]
I’m back in the U.S.S.R.
You don’t know how lucky you are, boy
Back in the U.S.S.R.

[Verse 2]
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
[Chorus]
I’m back in the U.S.S.R.
You don’t know how lucky you are, boy
Back in the U.S.
Back in the U.S.
Back in the U.S.S.R.
[Bridge]
Well, the Ukraine girls really knock me out
(Uuuu-uu-u-uuuh)
They leave the West behind
And Moscow girls make me sing and shout (Uuuu-uu-u-uuuh)
That Georgia’s always on my mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mind
Oh, come on!
[Guitar Solo]
Wow! Hey!
Uuh, ooh yeah
[Chorus]
Yeah, I’m back in the U.S.S.R.
You don’t know how lucky you are, boys
Back in the U.S.S.R.
