- Verse:
- Up to mighty London came
an Irish man one day.
All the streets are paved with gold, sure everyone was gay!
Singing songs of Piccadilly, Strand and Leicester Square,
'Til Paddy got excited, then he shouted to them there:
-
- Chorus:
- It's a long way to Tipperary,
- It's a long way to go.
- It's a long way to Tipperary,
- To the sweetest girl I know!
Goodbye Piccadilly,
- Farewell, Leicester Square!
It's a long long way to Tipperary,
But my heart's right there.
