I Left My Heart At The Stage Door Canteen lyrics

Old Mister Absent-Minded, that`s me
Just as forgetful as I can be
I`ve got the strangest sort of a mind
I`m always leaving something behind

I left my heart at the Stage Door Canteen
I left it there with a girl named Eileen

I kept her serving doughnuts
Till all she had were gone
I sat there dunking doughnuts
Till she caught on

I must go back to the army routine
And every doughboy knows what that will mean

A soldier boy without a heart
Has two strikes on him from the start
And my heart`s at the Stage Door Canteen
