I'm coming home, Ive done my timeNow I've got to know what is and isn't mine
If you received my letter telling you I' ll soon be free
Then you'll know just what to do
If you still want me
If you still want me
Whoa, tie a yellow ribbon 'round the ole oak tree
It's been three long years
Do ya still want me? (still want me)...
In 1973, Tony Orlando recorded Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round The Ole Oak Tree. The song was number one for the year, became Orlando's theme song and grew into an American anthem of hope and homecoming, reunion and renewal. The yellow ribbon has welcomed home POWs from Laos, Cambodia and Vietnam, the hostages from Iran and the troops from Desert Storm. Veterans are honored each Veterans Day, November 11th, in Branson with the Tony Orlando Yellow Ribbon Salute to Veterans.
Born Michael Anthony Orlando Cassavitis to a Greek father and a Puerto Rican mother, Tony Orlando, now 64, was raised in Manhattan's then-notorious Hell's Kitchen.

How true that no entertainer can move and excite an audience like Tony orlando, one of America's most endearing and enduring stars!
Enjoyed the rare opportunity of seeing Tony Orlando live in Genting, at the invitation of good old friend Mei and husband, my friends for 40 years.
