Ev'vry girl, ev'ry where who is not over there,
Ev'ry girl who is left behind;
Tho she's doing her bit, with the best of them,
The best that one could find;
She is always demure for her down cast eyes,
Seem to say: "My gay days are all past far, far behind"
You may offer a penny for a Belgian refugee,
And find out just what is on her mind.
There's a girl who is knitting for you,____
There's a girl who is knitting for you,____
When she starts a knitting, her heart starts a flitting
to you, to you___ No submarine, can intervene,
in between the thoughts I am sending to you__
There's a heart that is breaking in two____
But I'll knit it together when you,____
Come back to the girl,
who is waiting and waiting and knitting for you._____
