[Verse 1: Mitch Miller Chorus & Frank Loesser]
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a girl in my arms?
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a bundle of charms?
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
I just gotta have a honey holdin' me tight
I ain't in the army for the pastime
Don't knit me nothin' like the last time
Give me a girl in my arms tonight

[Verse 2: Mitch Miller Chorus & Frank Loesser]
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a girl in my arms?
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a bundle of charms?
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
I'll be headin' for the very thick of the fight
You can keep your shavin' cream and lotion
If I'm a-gonna cross the ocean
Give me a girl in my arms tonight

[Bridge: Mitch Miller Chorus]
La la la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
[Verse 3: Mitch Miller Chorus & Frank Loesser]
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
La, la, la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la, la la la la la la la
La, la, la la la la la la la
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
I just gotta have a honey holdin' me tight *Whistle*
Dear old Veterans Administration
Take back my college education
Give me a girl in my arms tonight

[Verse 4: Mitch Miller Chorus & Frank Loesser]
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a girl in my arms?
In my arms, in my arms
Ain't I never gonna get a bundle of charms?
Comes the dawn, I'll be gone
I just gotta have a honey holdin' me tight *Whistle*
Please don't bake another batch of cookies
Go shove your cookies at the rookies
Give me a girl in my arms tonight
Give me a girl in my arms tonight *Whistle*
