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.
*Tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree,
It's been three long years.
Do ya 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*
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
Simple yellow ribbons
What I need to set me free
I wrote and told her please
*Repeat*
Now the whole damn bus is cheering
And I can't believe
I see a hundred yellow ribbons round the ole oak tree.
