Lyrics
(Folk song)
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 will bend and break…
Build it up with silver and gold…
Game
Two students make an arch with their arms while the other students run under the arch. At the last word of each verse (“lady”), drop the arch, catching someone.
