For me, it's always been Chuck Berry's "Back in the U.S.A."

Oh well, oh well I feel so good today

I just touched down on an international runway

Jet-propelled back home from overseas to the USA.

New York, Los Angeles, oh how I yearn for you

Detroit, Chicago, Chattanooga, Baton Rouge

How I long just to be in my home back in ol' St. Lou

Did I miss the skyscrapers, did I miss the long freeways?

From the coast of California to the shores of the Delaware Bay?

You can bet your life I did till I got back to the USA

I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA

Yeah, I'm so glad I'm livin' in the USA

Anything you want, we got it right here in the USA

You missed a verse; from memory, it's:

Looking hard for a drive-in, searching for a corner cafe
Where hamburgers sizzle on the open grille night and day.
And the juke box jumping with records like in the USA.
