Lyrics
Johnny Doughboy over seas
Filled with pride and joy
Stopping everyone he meets
And shouting, “It’s a boy”
Chorus
What does he look like
That boy of mine?
Since the news came
I can’t get him off my mind
Does he resemble his homely dad?
Does he look like the girl that I left behind?
Bring on the Germans
And bring on the Japs
Bring on the first two you can find
One for the rascal I haven’t seen
And one for the girl that I left behind
