This song appears as the opening track on the Beatles' 1968 double album titled The Beatles. Paul McCartney wrote it and it was credited to the Lennon-McCartney partnership. The composition serves as a parody of two earlier songs: Chuck Berry's "Back in the U.S.A." and the Beach Boys' "California Girls".
Lyrics ↗What the lyrics are about
The lyrics invert the patriotic message found in Berry's original song, with the narrator character experiencing happiness upon returning to the Soviet Union rather than the United States.
