Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Old Oak Tree - Tony Orlando & Dawn 1973 原唱版
I'm coming 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,
Oh, tie a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree. It's been three long years. Do you still want me? (Still want me?) If I don't see a ribbon 'round the old 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 old 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.
Oh, tie a yellow ribbon 'round the old oak tree. It's been three long years. Do you still want me? (Still want me?) If I don't see a ribbon 'round the old 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 old oak tree.
Now the whole damn bus is cheering, And I can't believe I see, A hundred yellow ribbons 'round the old oak tree.
I'm coming home, mm-hmm.
(Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree. Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree. Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree.
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree. Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree. Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree.
Tie a ribbon 'round the old oak tree...)

Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Ole Oak
Tree" is a song by Tony Orlando and Dawn. It was written by Irwin Levine
and L. Russell Brown and produced by Hank Medress and Dave Appell, with
Motown/Stax backing vocalist Telma Hopkins, Joyce Vincent Wilsonand her sister
Pamela Vincent on backing vocals. It was a worldwide hit for the group in 1973.
This is NOT the story of a convict who had
told his love to tie a ribbon book to a tree outside of town. I know because I
wrote the song one morning in 15 minutes with the late lyrical genius Irwin
Levine. The genesis of this idea came from the age old folk tale about a Union
prisoner of war--who sent a letter to his girl that he was coming home from a
confederate POW camp in Georgia.... Anything about a criminal is pure fantasy....
