I Left My Heart At The Stage Door Canteen - Sammy Kaye

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
