London Bridge Is Falling Down

“London Bridge Is Falling Down” is a traditional English folk song of anonymous authorship, with roots traced to at least the 17th century and possibly medieval London. Early printings appear in the 1744 collection Tommy Thumb’s Pretty Song Book.

Long associated with children’s singing games, the melody has been recorded by performers such as Burl Ives and countless school choirs. Its steady pulse suits clapping or marching, and the lyrics’ collapse-and-rebuild imagery invites playful, sometimes dramatic performances.
