"It's a long way to Tipperary" was written by JACK JUDGE.

Bill Caddick even wrote a song about it for his show "Sunny Memories".

Harry Williams is often included in the credits, but that was only because he'd been a good friend of Jack's who'd often lent him money when trade was poor, and Jack promised in return that is he ever wrote a best-selling song, he would put Harry's name on it.
