Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Ole Oak Tree

I'll stay on the bus, forget about us, put the blame on me

Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree

If I don't see a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree
Now the whole damned bus is cheerin'
And I can't believe I see
I'm comin' home
Tie a ribbon round the ole oak tree

Bus driver, please look for me
If I don't see a ribbon round the ole oak tree
If you still want me, if you still want me

Tie a ribbon round the ole oak tree
Tie a ribbon round the ole oak tree
If you received my letter telling you I'd soon be free
Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree
Tie a ribbon round the ole oak tree
Then you'll know just what to do
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us, put the blame on me

Tie a ribbon round the ole oak tree
A hundred yellow ribbons round the ole oak tree
And I wrote and told her please
If I don't see a yellow ribbon round the ole oak tree

If I don't see a ribbon round the ole oak tree
Tie a ribbon round the ole oak tree
I'm really still in prison and my love, she holds the key
Tie a ribbon round the ole oak tree
It's been three long years, do you still want me?
A simple yellow ribbon's what I need to set me free
It's been three long years, do you still want me?

'Cause I couldn't bear to see what I might see
