This is the Army movie - I Left My Heart At The Stage Door Canteen lyrics

rate me

<br>

Old Mister Absent-Minded, that's me<br>

Just as forgetful as I can be<br>

I've got the strangest sort of a mind<br>

I'm always leaving something behind<br>

<br>

I left my heart at the Stage Door Canteen<br>

I left it there with a girl named Eileen<br>

<br>

I kept her serving doughnuts<br>

Till all she had were gone<br>

I sat there dunking doughnuts<br>

Till she caught on<br>

<br>

I must go back to the army routine<br>

And every doughboy knows what that will mean<br>

<br>

A soldier boy without a heart<br>

Has two strikes on him from the start<br>

And my heart's at the Stage Door Canteen<br>

<br>
