  18538>(I. Levine - L. Russell)
 
 
  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.
 
 
  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.
 
 
  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.
 
 
  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 the ole oak tree.
 
 
  Now the whole bus is cheering and I can't believe I see
  A hundred yellow ribbons round the ole oak tree...
