I always thought the song was ab out a guy comming home from jail (a la the lyrics:

It's been three long years
Do ya 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


(put the blame on me)
