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 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
Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon
'round the ole oak tree
It's been three long
years
Do ya 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

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)



Now the whole damned bus is
cheerin'
And I can't believe I see
A
hundred yellow ribbons 'round the ole oak
tree

I'm comin' home, mmm, mmm

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

FADE

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