It’s a Long Way to Tipperary Songtext
von Tiny Tim

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,
Like you did before, on the next, 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!
