It's A Long Way To Tipperary

The song It's a long way to Tipperary became famous during World War I. It was written in 1912 by the Englishman Jack Judge, whose grandparents came from the Tipperay area in Ireland. Judge himself, though, had never been to Ireland. The song symbolizes each soldier’s desire to return home. During World War I the song was mainly sung by Irish soldiers, but later was also used by the French and the Russians. The song remained popular with soldiers even during World War II.. Accompaniment with drum band optional (sold separately).
