London Bridge is broken down,

Dance over my Ladye Lea;

London Bridge is broken down:

With a gay ladye.

How shall we build it up again?

Dance over my Ladye Lea;

How shall we build it up again?

With a gay ladye.

Silver and gold will be stole away,

Dance over my Ladye Lea;

Silver and gold will be stole away:

With a gay ladye.

Iron and steel will bend and bow,

Dance over my Ladye Lea;

Iron and steel will bend and bow:

With a gay ladye.

Wood and clay will wash away,

Dance over my Ladye Lea;

Wood and clay will wash away:

With a gay ladye.

Build it up with stone so strong,

Dance over my Ladye Lea;

Huzza! 'twill last for ages long.

With a gay ladye.
