Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm coming home, I've done my time Now, I've got to know what is or 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 [Chorus] Oh, tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree It's been three long years, do you still want me? If I don't see a ribbon 'round the ole 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 ole oak tree [Verse 2] Bus driver, please look for me 'Cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see I'm really still in prison and, my love, she holds the key A simple yellow ribbon's what I need to set me free I wrote and told her "please" [Chorus] Oh, tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree It's been three long years, do you still want me? If I don't see a ribbon 'round the ole 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 ole oak tree [Bridge] Now, the whole damned bus is cheering And I can't believe I see A hundred yellow ribbons 'round the ole oak tree [Outro] (Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree) (Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree) (Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree) (Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree)
