"London Bridge" is a nursery rhyme and playground singing game. The song first appeared in the Barney franchise in Three Wishes.
The song's first appearance in print was in 1881, but it is reported that a version was already being sung to the current tune in the 1790s and similar rhymes are known from across Europe. The tune of the song is the same as "Head and Shoulders, Knees and Toes".
Lyrics[]
- London Bridge is falling down,
- Falling down, falling down.
- London Bridge is falling down,
- My fair lady.
- Build it up with iron bars,
- Iron bars, Iron bars.
- Build it up with iron bars,
- My fair lady.
- Iron bars will bend and break
- Bend and break, bend and break
- Iron bars will bend and break
- My fair lady.
- Build it up with silver and gold,
- Silver and gold, silver and gold.
- Build it up with silver and gold,
- My fair lady.
- Gold and silver I have none,
- I have none, I have none.
- Gold and silver I have none,
- My fair lady.
- London Bridge is falling down,
- Falling down, falling down.
- London Bridge is falling down,
- My fair lady.

- Needles and pins, needles and pins,
- Build it up with needles and pins,
- My fair lady.
- Pins and needles will rust and bend,

- Pins and needles will rust and bend,
- My fair lady.
