Standard (EADGBE)

 Flew in from Miami Beach B. O. A. C.

 Didn't get to bed last night

On the way the paperback was on my knee

 Man I had a dreadful flight

 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.

 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 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.

 Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out

 They leave the West behind

 And Moscow girls make me sing and shout

 That Geogia's always on my mi mi mi mi mi mi mind [Oh come on!]

Solo

 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.

 Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out

 They leave the West behind

 And Moscow girls make me sing and shout

 That Geogia's always on my mi mi mi mi mi mi mind

 Oh, show me 'round your snow-peaked mountains way down south

 Take me to your daddy's farm

 Let me hear your balalaikais ringing out

 Come and keep your comrade warm

 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.

Been away so long I hardly knew the place,

Gee it's good to be back home

Show me round your snow peaked mountains way down south,

take me to your daddy's farm

Let me hear you balalaikas ringing out,

come and keep your comrade warm

Peace, love, and soul,
