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 as 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 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
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
Oh 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
damn bus is cheering
And I can't believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons
round the old the old oak tree
Tie a ribbon
round the old oak tree
