Up to mighty London came An Irishman one day, Singing songs of Piccadilly, So all the world was gay Singing songs of Piccadilly, Strand, and Leicester Square, 'Til Paddy got excited and He shouted to them there: It's a long way to Tipperary, It's a long way to go. It's a long way to Tipperary And the sweetest girl I know! Farewell to Piccadilly, Goodbye, Leicester Square! It's a long long way to Tipperary, But my heart's right there. It's a long way to Tipperary, And it's a long way to go. It's a long way to Tipperary And the sweetest girl I know! Farewell, Piccadilly, Goodbye, Leicester Square! It's a long long way to Tipperary, But my heart's right there. La la la la, ladies and gentlemen, The great Mr. John McCormick sang this song all over the world As well as Ms. Florie Fort from England And many soldiers died to this great song and lived to this great song Let's all sing in honor of them in the next chorus, Like you did before, on the next chorus, I'll tell you when Listen, listen to the march, yes sir! It's a long way to Tipperary, but my heart's right there! Come on, let's start! It's a long way to Tipperary, It's a long way to go. It's a long way to Tipperary And the sweetest girl I know! Farewell to Piccadilly, Goodbye, Leicester Square! It's a long long way to Tipperary, But my heart's right there. It's a long, long way to Tipperary, But my heart's right there!
