Yellow Ribbon
When I die
I don't want crying, nor candles
I want a yellow ribbon
Engraved with her name
When I die
I don't want crying, nor candles
I want a yellow ribbon
Engraved with her name
I don't want flowers
Nor a crown with thorns
I just want flute tears
With guitar and ukulele
When I die
I don't want crying, nor candles
I want a yellow ribbon
Engraved with her name
When I die
I don't want crying, nor candles
I want a yellow ribbon
Engraved with her name
If there's a soul
If there's another reincarnation
I wish the mulatto woman tap danced on my coffin
When I die
I don't want crying, nor candles
I want a yellow ribbon
Engraved with her name
When I die
I don't want crying, nor candles
I want a yellow ribbon
Engraved with her name
The enemies
Who now speak ill of me
Will say they've never seen someone so good
The enemies
Who now speak ill of me
Will say they've never seen someone so good
When I die
I don't want crying, nor candles
I want a yellow ribbon
Engraved with her name
When I die
I don't want crying, nor candles
I want a yellow ribbon
Engraved with her name
