Yellow Ribbon

Around her hair she wore a yellow ribbon She wore it in the spring time, in the early month of May

And if you asked her why the heck she wore it

She'd say she wore it for her soldier who was far, far away

Far away

Far away

She wore it for her soldier who was far, far away

Around the block she pushed a baby carriage

She pushed it in the spring time, in the early month of May

And if you asked her why the heck she pushed it

She'd say she pushed it for her soldier who was far, far away

Far away

Far away

She pushed it for her soldier who was far, far away

Behind the door, her father kept a shotgun

She kept it in the spring time, in the early month of May

And if you asked her why the heck she kept it

She'd say she kept it for her soldier who was far, far away

Far away

Far away

She kept it for her soldier who was far, far away

Around his grave she laid the pretty flowers

She laid them in the spring time, in the early month of May

And if you asked her why the heck she laid them

She'd say she laid them for her soldier who was far, far away

Far away

Far away

She laid them for her soldier who was far, far away
