Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree Songtext
I′m coming home, I've done my time
Now I′ve got to know what is and isn't mine
If you received my letter telling you I'd soon be free
Then you′ll know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me
Well, tie a yellow ribbon ′round the old oak tree
It's been three long years, do you still want me?
If I don′t see a ribbon round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus
Forget about us put the blame on me
If I don′t see a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Bus driver please look for me
′Cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see
Now I'm really still in prison
And my love he holds the key
A simple yellow ribbon is what I need to set me free
I wrote and told him please
Well, tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree
It′s been three long years, do you still want me?
If I don′t see a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
I′ll stay on the bus
Forget about us, put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon ′round the old oak tree
Now the whole darn bus is cheering
And I can't believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons ′round the old oak tree
Now I′ve got to know what is and isn't mine
If you received my letter telling you I'd soon be free
Then you′ll know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me
Well, tie a yellow ribbon ′round the old oak tree
It's been three long years, do you still want me?
If I don′t see a ribbon round the old oak tree
I'll stay on the bus
Forget about us put the blame on me
If I don′t see a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree
Bus driver please look for me
′Cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see
Now I'm really still in prison
And my love he holds the key
A simple yellow ribbon is what I need to set me free
I wrote and told him please
Well, tie a yellow ribbon round the old oak tree
It′s been three long years, do you still want me?
If I don′t see a ribbon 'round the old oak tree
I′ll stay on the bus
Forget about us, put the blame on me
If I don't see a yellow ribbon ′round the old oak tree
Now the whole darn bus is cheering
And I can't believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons ′round the old oak tree
