Oh well, oh well, i feel so good today,
We touched ground on an international runway
Jet propelled back home, from over the seas to the u. s. a.
New york, los angeles, oh, how i yearned for you
Detroit, chicago, chattanooga, baton rouge
Let alone just to be at my home back in ol' st. lou.
Did i miss the skyscrapers, did i miss the long freeway?
From the coast of california to the shores of delaware bay
You can bet your life i did, till i got back to the u. s. a.
Looking hard for a drive-in, searching for a corner caf
