She Wore a Yellow Ribbon Lyrics



Around her neck she wore a yellow ribbon
She wore it in the springtime in the merry month of May
And if you ask her why the heck she wore it
She wore it for a soldier who was far far away

Far away, far away
She wore it for a soldier who was far, far away

Around the block she pushed the baby carriage
She pushed it in the springtime in the merry month of May
And if you ask her why the heck she pushed it
She pushed it for a soldier who was far far away

Far away, far away
She pushed it for a soldier who was far, far away

Behind the door her daddy kept a shotgun
He kept it in the springtime in the merry month of May
And if you ask her why the heck he kept it
He kept it for a soldier who was far far away

Far away, far away
He kept it for a soldier who was far, far away

Upon the grave she placed the yellow flowers
She placed them in the springtime in the merry month of May
And if you ask her why the heck she placed them
She placed them for a soldier who was far far away

Far away, far away
She placed them for a soldier who was far, far away
