1
I'm gettin' corns for my Country
2
At the Hollywood Canteen
3
The hardest workin' junior hostess
4
You've ever seen
5
I'm doin' my bit down here for Uncle Sam
6
I'm a patriotic jitterbug
7
Yeah, yeah, that's what I am
8
I'm gettin' corns for my country, you should see the pounds fly
9
I'm gettin' down the waistline and I don't even try
10
I don't need a Duberry or a Westmore course
11
'Cos my weight's been taken over by the Army Air Force
12
We're not petite as sweet Joan Leslie, but then we never mind
13
When those GI's knock the South, we're glad that we're the healthy kind
14
The way those cowboys from the prairie expect us to sashay
15
I think I'd rather two-step with their horses any day
16
We're gettin' corns for our Country, though the goin' is tough
17
When we think we can't go on, we find we can't get enough
18
So if you hear of a soldier, sailor or marine
19
Tell him to look us up at the Hollywood Canteen
20
I used to be aesthetic, they say, oh yes I was, really I was
21
I served the drama, arts and the ballet
22
But the theatre guild came over and said, 'Forget about Pavlova '
23
Learn to cut a rug, so now we're jitterbugs
24
I'm gettin' corns for my Country, so I'm really all in
25
In a week from now we'll be here with our usual vim
26
So if you hail from the Bronx, Des Moines or Aberdeen
27
Come down and ask for us at the Hollywood Canteen
