Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round The Ole Oak Tree

Tie a Yellow Ribbon

Round The Ole Oak Tree

Perry Como

I'm comin' home, I've done my time,

Now I've got to know

what is and isn't mine,

If you received my letter,

Tellin' 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 you still want me? (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 around

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 ribbon's,

what I need to set me free

I wrote and told her please

Tie a yellow ribbon

'round the ole oak tree,

It's been three long years

Do you still want me? (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...

backing vocal: (Tie a yellow ribbon

'round the ole oak tree,)

(...three long years,)

(...still want me?)

And now the whole damn bus is cheerin'

And I can't believe I see...

A hundred yellow ribbons

'round the ole...

The ole oak tree!

backing vocal: (Tie a ribbon 'round

the ole oak tree,)

(Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree,)

(Tie a ribbon 'round

the ole oak tree).......
