He learned to play the piano from an older sister but composing music was a gift that saw him have his first song published at the age of eighteen. After finishing high school (DeWitt Clinton High School), class of 1917, he found a job at a music store as a stock room clerk but a highly successful 1920 composition called "When You're Gone, I Won't Forget" led to his being hired by the New York office of the Italian music publisher G. Ricordi & Co.In 1923 he met ukulele musician May Singhi Breen (18951970) performing on radio with a female ukulele group known as the "Syncopators." A personal relationship developed and she left the group to join DeRose in a musical radio show on NBC called the "Sweethearts of the Air" in which he played piano and she performed on the ukulele. The popular show ran for sixteen years during which time the two entertainers were married. The show not only provided them with a good living, but was also a vehicle for the introduction of a number of his compositions.DeRose collaborated with a number of prominent lyricists such as Charles Tobias, Al Stillman, Carl Sigman, Billy Hill. Some of DeRose's best known works are:"Somebody Loves You" (1932) piano composition and with lyrics recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1966;"Wagon Wheels" (1934) used in the Broadway musical, Ziegfeld Follies in 1934, and performed by singers such as Bing Crosby and Paul Robeson;"Deep Purple" (1934) popularized by Larry Clinton and His Orchestra featuring Bea Wain and later by Nino Tempo and April Stevens as a duet;"Rain" (1934) performed by Ella Fitzgerald;"Have You Ever Been Lonely?"

In addition to Wagon Wheels, Peter DeRose wrote songs for the Broadway musicals Yes Yes Yvette and Earl Carroll's Vanities of 1928. The most famous of his songs, "Deep Purple", was written in 1934 as a piano composition with lyrics added a few years later by Mitchell Parish. It was a top hit for Larry Clinton & His Orchestra in 1939 and recorded by Duke Ellington, Glenn Miller, Sarah Vaughan. In 1957, it was a No. 20 hit record for Billy Ward & the Dominoes then a No. 1 hit on the 1963 Billboard charts for Nino Tempo & April Stevens.

His family emigrated to the United States, arriving on February 3, 1901 on the SS Dresden when he was less than a year old. They settled first in Louisiana where his paternal grandmother had relatives, but later moved to New York City.By the late 1920s Parish was a well-regarded Tin Pan Alley lyricist in New York City.His best-known works include the lyrics to songs such as "Star Dust," "Sweet Lorraine," "Deep Purple," "Stars Fell on Alabama," "Sophisticated Lady," the translation to English lyrics of "Volare," "Moonlight Serenade," "Mr. Ghost Goes to Town," "Sleigh Ride," "One Morning in May," and "Louisiana Fairy Tale," which was the first theme song used in the PBS Production of This Old House.Besides providing the lyrics to Hoagy Carmichael's "Star Dust," the two collaborated on standards such as "Riverboat Shuffle" and "One Morning in May."In 1949, Parish added lyrics to bandleader Al Goodman's tune, "The Allen Stroll," which was played as radio comedian Fred Allen took a stroll down "Allen's Alley", a featured segment of Allen's weekly show. The new song, "Carousel of Love," premiered on The Fred Allen Show on April 4, 1949.

It ran for 101 performances and was revived in 1999. In an interview at the time Parish claimed to have also written the lyrics to the Duke Ellington standard "Mood Indigo" though they were credited to Irving Mills. He remained "somewhat rueful, though no longer bitter" about it.Parish's grandnephew was the Grateful Dead roadie Steve Parish, who described Parish's meeting with Jerry Garcia in his autobiography, Home Before Day Light.In 1972, he was inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame., Robbins Music Corporation, 1939, 3, Crown.
