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 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 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 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 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             (x2) Now the whole damn bus is cheerin' and I can't believe I see A  hundred yellow ribbons 'round 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, tie a ribbon 'round the ole oak tree

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque le retour d'un homme après une longue période d'absence, probablement due à l'emprisonnement. Il cherche à savoir si son amour l'attend toujours et lui demande de mettre un ruban jaune autour d'un vieux chêne pour signaler sa fidélité. Ce geste simple symbolise l'espoir et la libération émotionnelle qu'il recherche. S'il ne voit pas le ruban, il préfère renoncer à leur relation. Le contexte de cette chanson touche à des thèmes universels comme l'amour, l'attente et le désir de réconciliation après des épreuves. Elle illustre la fragilité des liens et l'importance des signes d'affection dans les relations humaines.
