Perry Como - Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Ole Oak Tree Lyrics
I'm comin' home, I've done my time,
Now I've got to know what is and isn't mine,
If you received my letter,
Tellin' you I'd soon be free,
Then you'll know just what to do,
If you still want me...
Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole 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 ole oak tree,
I'll stay on the bus, forget about us,
Put the blame on me...
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,
Simple yella ribbon's, what I need to set me free...
I wrote and told her please...
Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole 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 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...
Tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree,
...three long years,
...still want me?
And now the whole damn bus is cheerin'
And I can't believe I see...
A hundred yellow ribbons 'round the ole...
The ole oak tree!
Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree,
Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree,
Tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree...

I Love This Song!
Remembering Cory & Ninoy Aquino because of the song
New fav
We all make unforgivable mistakes. We all pay heavy penalties. Let your guilt churn you like the high winds churning the sea. Reform your mind, body and soul during penance. Rebuild your life with unblemished sincerity and purity. Perhaps ..... perhaps you'll find a proper place among good men and women inhabiting an orderly world. It's because the milk of human kindess is free and generously given to all.
Sung well, but unbelievable to the words.
I couldn’t believe my eyes 100 yellow ribbons around the ole oak tree
Great ending to a song
He had a lovely voice. Very decent gentleman of his time who loved his family to the moon and back.
These Italian Ametican artists. namely Perry, Sinatra and Dean Martin were all gifted singers.

Thank You. L.Russell Brown
RIP Perry. You are still.magical........L.Russell Brown
The best
Who was the original artist of this song?
Is it Perry
or
Tony Orlando & Dawn....?????
And who recorded it first...?????
Tony Orlando!
My life long pal..
This was the song we used when trying to save our local woods from local loggers ... we won its still a local woodland we can walk in and you can still see some ribbons tied :)
"Now the whole bus's cheering, and I can't believe what I see. A hundred yellow ribbons round the old oak tree."
This line always puts a smile on my face....
You are not alone :)
I am blessed to be able to say the magical Perry Como recorded my song!
He is one of jewels in my musical crown.
Bing Crosby
Frank Sinatra
Perry Como
Dolly Parton
Montovani
and even Johnny Raye
Are but a few of the greatest recording artists that ever lived,
Who have lent their special talents to a song I composed with the late Irwin Levine.
HOWEVER--without Tony Orlando and Dawn's initial recording of YELLOW RIBBON,
non of the above could have ever taken place.
Thanks for commenting here. Nice to hear from the songwriter. I have a friend named Braunstein who says you are a relation.
@Andrew George I didnt God simply allowed Irwin Levine and I to listen to him and we wrote in in 15 minutes.
We never concentrated on it
we just let it flow from within......Truth
L.Russell Brown
@Xavier Vinas Never forget Dino
The coolest singer to ever live!!
@CarlDuke True!
My grandfather's name before he changed it to Brown in 1915...because of antisemitic acts against him..
Thanks for responding. I live in New Jersey and our local paper had a really interesting article about Irwin when he passed on.
I was also privileged to attend your Jolson musical when it premiered at The Paper Mill Playhouse. Again thank you for replying and for a lifetime of fine songwriting.
I like it, and I love Perry Como, but I got to say, I still prefer the Tony Orlando version of this song.
Concordo. Esta música é muito boa e é ainda melhor na versão de Tony Orlando and Down, apesar de que curto bastante a de Ray Conniff.
thank you god,for this best voice ,
best version out there thank you!
my favorite among many from perry como
My FaVorite.....
EXCELLENT!!!
