Lyrics
Don’t Forget the Salvation Army (My Doughnut Girl) Verse: Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters, hear them ring Oh what joy and oh what bliss those coins can bring For now our boys are landing at our shores ev’ryday This is what you’re bound to hear them say: Refrain: Don’t forget the Salvation Army, always remember my doughnut girl She brought them doughnuts and coffee just like and angel, she was their best pal As brave as a lion but meek as a lamb she carried on beside the sons of Uncle Sam So don’t forget the Salvation Army, remember my doughnut girl. Verse: Glory, Hallelujah, you will hear them shout Helping any stranger who is down and out Humanity uplifting in their most cheerful way Is it any wonder that we say? Refrain
