SHE GAVE HER HEART TO A SOLDIER BOY
(Al Bryan / Alma Sanders)


Art Dickson (with The Polka Dots) - 1943





She gave her heart to a soldier boy
And he now plays a hero's part
If you can't take his place in the uniform
Then you can't take his place in her heart
She may dance with you, and romance with you
But to one she will always be true
She gave her heart to a soldier boy
And she won't give her heart to you

(Instrumental Break)

Who's that girlie over there with a ribbon in her hair
Lookin' sweet, lookin' sad, lookin' blue
Tell me buddy, would you care if her friendship you could share
Have a care what you say if you do

She gave her heart to a soldier boy
And he now plays a hero's part
If you can't take his place in the uniform
Then you can't take his place in her heart
She may dance with you, and romance with you
But to one she will always be true
She gave her heart to a soldier boy
And she won't give her heart to you

(Instrumental Break)
 
She may dance with you, and romance with you
But to one she will always be true
She gave her heart to a soldier boy
And she won't give her heart to you
