==Quotes==

{{cquote|This just, sort of, came. Chuck Berry once did a song called 'Back In The USA,' which is very American, very Chuck Berry, you know. He was 'serving in the army and, when I get back home, I'm gonna kiss the ground,' you know, 'can't wait to get back to the States.' It's very much an American thing, I always thought. So, this one, 'Back In The USSR', was about, in my mind, a spy who has been in America for a long, long time. Some fellow who's been in America for a long time and he's picked up and he's very American, but he gets back to the USSR, and he's, sort of, saying 'Leave it till tomorrow, honey to disconnect the phone,' and 'come here, honey,' with Russian women, and all that. It concerns the attributes of Russian women, a sole element created by George's guitar and heavy brass.|quotewidth=500px|Paul McCartney|1968}}
