There's A Typical Tipperary

There's A Typical Tipperary - Arthur Godfrey/All The Little Godfreys

NO Mike O'Rourke left County Cork

To sail across the foam

And now it's been a year since

He got over here

One day from dear old Ireland

Mike received a little note

They asked him how he liked it

Here so he sat down and wrote

There's a typical Tipperary

A typical Dublin Bay

A typical County Kerry

In the good old USA

Although you're many miles

From where the shamrocks grow

He'll find an Irishman no

Matter where you go

There are typical Irish colleens

With typical Irish ways

There's a bit of Blarney too

From way out 'Frisco to New York

They walk and they talk just like in Cork

You'd think that you were home in Ireland

NO Mike O'Rourke when he left

Cork said Faith I won't be lost

'Cos I'm going to a place that

Loves the Irish race

When he got here and saw

So many Irish everywhere

It made him feel at home

That's why he wrote back over there

There's a typical Tipperary

A typical Dublin Bay

A typical County Kerry in the good old USA

Although you're many miles

From where the shamrocks grow

You'll find an Irishman no

Matter where you go

There are typical Irish colleens

With typical Irish ways

There's a bit of Blarney too

From way out Frisco to New York

They walk and they talk just like in Cork

You'd think that you were home in Ireland

You'd think that you were home in Ireland
