We have brought the Team Effort out of our hole (September 2006 we were in 49th Place) and with that we are looking at moving into 27th place by sometime this weekend. It is all due to those who are not stopping since the first race back in May. I for one lost the ability to install exe files into my one machine so I have had this program capable of running and did not let any time waste away. Been crunching like a mad man and will continue to do so. There is the Annual AMD Users Spring Race going on right now, and I appreciate everyones work on pushing our Team Spots ever higher - Go Team Go! ! !, But when the time comes to return to old projects why not give this one a try and help us on achieving 26th place sometime in the near future!

Lyrics

It´s a long way to Tipperary

By Jack Judge and Harry Williams

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,
'Til Paddy got excited and
He shouted to them there:

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.

Paddy wrote a letter
To his Irish Molly O',
Saying, "Should you not receive it,
Write and let me know!
If I make mistakes in "spelling",
Molly dear", said he,
"Remember it's the pen, that's bad,
Don't lay the blame on me".

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.

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!"

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.

Extra Verse, From World War One

That's the wrong way to tickle Mary,
That's the wrong way to kiss!
Don't you know that over here, lad,
They like it best like this!
Hooray pour le Francais!
Farewell, Angleterre!
We didn't know the way to tickle Mary,
But we learned how, over there!

Thanks Vaughan!

I really appriciate it! It bring memories back such this:

I got a simple trumpet when I was seven years old and this song was one I played after notes. But I forgot the whole songs. All I remember was “it’s a long way…” This song become very popular during the WW1 and the soldiers sang it when they mashed by as a help to their morale and anxiety and to hold the walking speed. The song seems be nice. This song was my first contact with the English language and it is 51 years ago. I remember the melody as is was yesterday.
I think Ototero, Strongbow and all other feel of that song or perhaps I’m mistaken? Thanks also for the link as is valuable for me. I have seen many melodys but don´t been knowing alll the words. A secret: I´m very interested of music, lyric and instruments. The Swedish Nyckelharpa is ine of the instruments: http://www.nyckelharpa.org/ Take a look if you wich!
An English melody in Sweden that time must me more well-known where it comes from I think.:)

And to think that all this started with...

I´st a long long way to Tipperary I´ts a long long way too go!:icon_wink:

Lagu, Thank you for bringing back some good and happy memories for me. :)
I don't know if I ever told you but my mother passed away over 3 years ago, victim of cancer. But I still remember well to hear her sing that and other songs for me and my brothers and sisters when I was surely less than 10 years old. (almost 20 years ago...:icon_rolleyes:)
