(Jimmy Kennedy)
Maurice Winnick and his Orchestra
In a big department store
There's a girl who's heart sings a song
She had word to say, "He's on his way"
And now it won't be long
There's a boy coming home on leave
There's a girl wants him home on leave
She'll meet him right at the station
And will she tell all the Nation
There's a boy coming home on leave
And his heart will be on his sleeve
They'll have a grand celebration
When he comes home on leave
And as they meet, he'll tell her how he's missed her
That's after he's kissed her
And then they'll talk about that wedding morning
They'll plan a honeymoon, the Army can't wait till June
There's a boy coming home on leave
He'll enjoy coming home on leave
They'll make it ten days of heaven
When he comes home on leave
