In recognition of National Doughnut Day, June 7, 2013.

From Wikipedia: "National Doughnut Day is on the first Friday of June each year, succeeding the Doughnut Day event created by The Salvation Army in 1938 to honor the women who served doughnuts to soldiers during World War I. The holiday celebrates the doughnut (a.k.a. 'donut') – an edible, torus-shaped piece of dough which is deep-fried and sweetened. Many American doughnut stores offer free doughnuts on National Doughnut Day."

Don't Forget the Salvation Army (My Doughnut Girl)

"Words by Elmore Leffingwell and James Luca. Music by Robert Brown and William Frisch. This song officially endorsed and adopted by the Salvation Army (official seal). Broadway Music Corporation, Will von Tilzer, president, 145 West 45th St., New York. E. E. Walton."

Chorus:

Don't forget the Salvation Army,
Always remember my doughnut girl.
She brought them doughnuts and coffee
Just like an 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.
