I Left My Heart At The Stage Door Canteen

Sammy Kaye



[Singing]

I left my heart at the stage door canteen



[Musical interlude]



[Spoken]

This cute story of Army life romance by Don Cornell



[Singing]

I left my heart at the stage door canteen

I left it there with a girl named Eileen



I kept her serving doughnuts

Til all she had were gone



I sat there dunking doughnuts

Til 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
