​1914
 
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.
 
Hello! Hello! Who’s your lady friend?
Who’s the little girlie by your side?
I’ve seen you with a girl or two
Oh! Oh! Oh! I am surprised at you
 
Hello! Hello! Stop your little games
Don’t you think your ways you ought to mend
It isn’t the girl I saw you with on Friday
Who? Who? Who’s your lady friend?
 
Take me back to dear old Blighty!
Put me on the train for London town.
Take me over there, drop me anywhere
Birmingham, Leeds or Manchester, well I don’t care
 
I should love to see my best girl
Cuddling up again we soon should be
Whoa!
Tiddley-iddley-ighty, hurry me back to Blighty
Blighty is the place for me.
