Tip-Top Tipperary Mary

VERSE 1Tipperary Tommy was a soldier boy,Brave as any lad could be,Tipperary Mary was a pretty lass,TiWaiting for her Tommy ‘cross the sea,In her heart, in her heart a beating feeling tellsOf a love that is all true bblue,And in her ear a song Tommy sang will linger long,And thrill her thru’ and thru’: CHORUSTip Top Tipperary Mary,I love you true,Tip Top Tipperary Mary,My love’s true as your eyes of blue,I dream of your endearing young charms,Ev’ry night ‘thruTho’ I’m far away from Tipperary, Mary,My heart’s with you. VERSE 2Tipperary Tommy, so the story goes,Told a comrade one dark night,“Ev’ry thing is fading, it’s myself that knowsNever ever more will Tommy fight,In my heart, in my heart a throbbing seems to tellOf my Mary so far away,When you go marching home,Sing to Mary ‘cross the foamThis song I sang one day.” CHORU
