Irving Berlin – I Left My Heart At The Stage Door Canteen lyrics
Album: Cheek To Cheek: Irving Berlin Songbook
[Verse:]
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
[Refrain:]
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
