I&9m coming home, I&9ve done my time
Now I&9ve got to know what is and isn&9t mine
If you received my letter
Telling you I&9d soon be free
Then you&9ll know just what to do
If you still want me, if you still want me
Tie a yellow ribbon around the old oak tree
It&9s been three long years
Do you still want me
If I don&9t see a ribbon around the old oak tree
I&9ll stay on the bus, forget about us
Put the blame on me
If I don&9t see a yellow ribbon around the old oak tree
Bus driver, please look for me
Cause I couldn&9t bear to see what I might see
I&9m really still in prison
And my love she holds the key
Simple yellow ribbon what I need to set me free
I&9ve wrote and told her please
Now the whole damn bus is cheering
And I can&9t believe I see
A hundred yellow ribbons around the old oak tree
