Did You See My Daddy Over There?

Eddy Arnold

A little boy tugged gently

At a soldier’s khaki sleeve.

He says, «Forgive me, mister;

But you’ve been across I believe.

I see the purple heart you wear

That tells what you’ve been through.

Perhaps you know my daddy, sir;

'Cause he’s a soldier, too.

Did you see my daddy, mister soldier,

When you were fighting over there?

I thought perhaps by chance

You met him there in France,

Or somewhere over there

Across the sea.

It’s been so long since daddy went away.

My mommy longs for him both night and day.

I know 'twould make her glad

If you had seen my dad.

Did you see my daddy over there?

The soldier’s eyes grew misty

As he watched the boy’s face,

For it recalled a memory

That time can not erase;

A buddy lost in action,

The best pal he ever had.

Till death he carried o’er his heart

A picture of this lad.

Did you see my daddy, mister soldier,

When you were fighting over there?

I thought perhaps by chance

You met him there in France,

Or somewhere over there across the sea.

It’s been so long since daddy went away.

My mommy longs for him both night and day.

I know 'twould make her glad

If you had seen my dad.

Did you see my daddy over there?
