Irving Berlin - I Left My Heart at the Stage Door Canteen lyrics

[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
