Embankment

I start at the bridge Down the steps I go I pass the food stalls All in a row Beside the Cathedral In its garden green A beautiful sight There to be seen Down at borough market There's a scent in the air Of the food of many nations They lovingly prepare It makes me feel hungry And I want to try All of those dishes So I quickly walk by Then on to Drakes ship by the old anchor inn Where many will stop For a beer on a gin As I walk by the river I see the Dome of St Pauls I see boats on the water I hear seagulls calls I can hear a busker As he sings clear and sweet I stop to listen And I tap my feet I toss him some coins Then move on my way He will never know How he's made my day A little bit further The Globe I can see With the works of Shakespeare Its a great place to be I have so often Seen a play there Acted so well In the open air The sights smells and sounds Of London you see That's why I love London That's London to me
