Yellow Ribbon lyrics
by Jonathan Michael Fleming
[Intro, Jonathan Michael Fleming, (Soldiers)]
Around her head she wore a yellow ribbon, (Around her head she wore a yellow ribbon,)
She wore it in the springtime, in the early month of may, (She wore it in the springtime, in the early month of may,)
And if you asked her why the heck she wore it, (And if you asked why the heck she wore it,)
She wore it for the soldier who was far, far away (She wore it for the soldier who was far, far away)
Far away (Far away)
Far away (Far away)
She wore it for the soldier who was far, far away (She wore it for the soldier who was far, far away)
[Verse 1, Jonathan Michael Fleming, (Soldiers)]
Around the block she pushed a baby carriage, (Around the block she pushed a baby carriage)
She pushed it in the springtime in the early month of may (She pushed it in the springtime in the early month of may)
And if you asked her why the heck she pushed it, (And if you asked why the heck she pushed it,)
She pushed it for the soldier who was far, far away (She pushed it for the soldier who was far, far away)
Far away (Far away)
Far away (Far away)
She pushed it for the soldier who was far, far away (She pushed it for the soldier who was far, far away)
[Outro, Jonathan Michael Fleming, (Soldiers)]
Behind the door her daddy kept a shotgun, (Behind the door her daddy kept a shotgun,)
He kept it in springtime in the early month of may (He kept it in springtime in the early month of may)
And if you asked him why the heck he kept it, (And if you asked him why the heck he kept it,)
He kept it for the soldier, the one who got away (He kept it for the soldier, the one who got away)
Far away (Far away)
Far away (Far away)
He kept it for the soldier who was far, far away (He kept it for the soldier who was far, far away)
