Lesson 2 – Going Home
Activity 1
Enjoy the song:
TIE A YELLOW RIBBON ROUND THE OLD OAK TREE
TIE A YELLOW RIBBON ROUND THE
OLD OAK TREE
I'ing 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
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
TIE 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
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
TIE 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'ing home
