Lyrics/Lirik:

I
Up to mighty London came an Irish lad one day
All the streets were paved with gold, so everyone was gay
Singing songs of Piccadilly, Strand, and Leicester Square
Till Paddy got excited and 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

II
Molly wrote a neat reply to Irish Paddy O'
Saying, "Mike Maloney wants to marry me, and so
Leave the Strand and Piccadilly, or you'll be to blame
For love has fairly drove me silly, hoping you're the same"

Chorus

"Historical echoes woven into enchanting melodies.."
