I Left My Heart At The Stage Door Canteen

I Left My Heart At The Stage Door Canteen
Sammy Kaye

I left my heart at the stage door canteen

This cute story of Army life romance by Don Cornell

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
