London Bridge

London Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down, London Bridge is falling down, my fair lady! Build it up with shiny bricks, shiny bricks, shiny bricks, Build it up with shiny bricks, my fair lady! Shiny bricks will wash away, wash away, wash away, Shiny bricks will wash away, my fair lady! Weave it strong with golden thread, golden thread, golden thread, Weave it strong with golden thread, my fair lady! Golden thread can fray and break, fray and break, fray and break, Golden thread can fray and break, my fair lady! Carve it grand from granite stone, granite stone, granite stone, Carve it grand from granite stone, my fair lady! Granite strong will stand the test, stand the test, stand the test, Granite strong will stand the test, my fair lady! Now it stands, a wondrous sight, wondrous sight, wondrous sight, Now it stands, a wondrous sight, my fair lady! London Bridge will forever gleam, forever gleam, forever gleam, London Bridge will forever gleam, my fair lady!
