Brenda Lee — Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak Tree

[Verse 1] I'm coming home, I've done my time And I've got to know what is and isn't mine If you've 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Instrumental] [Verse 3] Bus driver please, won't you look for me Oh 'cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see You know, I'm really still in prison And my love he holds the key A simple yellow ribbon's what I need to set me free And I wrote and I told him, please [Verse 4] Honey tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree It's been three long years And I want to know if you still want me? If I don't see a ribbon round the ole oak tree I'll gonna stay on the bus And forget about us, put the blame on me If I don't see a yellow ribbon round that ole oak tree [Instrumental] [Outro] Now the whole bus is cheering and I can't believe I see A hundred yellow ribbons round that ole oak tree
