Back in the U.S.S.R.

[Verse 1]

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]

The Ukraine girls really knock me out (Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

They leave the West behind (Bah-bah-bah-bah)

And Moscow girls make me sing and shout (Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

That Georgia's always on my mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mind

Oh, come on!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

I'm back in thе U.S.S.R.​

You don't know how lucky you are, boys

Back in the U.S.S.R.​

[Bridge]

The Ukrainе girls really knock me out (Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

They leave the West behind (Bah-bah-bah-bah)

And Moscow girls make me sing and shout (Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh)

That Georgia's always on my mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mi-mind

[Verse 3]

Take me to 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

[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.​

[Outro]

Back in the U.S.S.R.​ (Ooh-ooh-ooh)

Oh, yeah

Back in the U.S.S.R.​
