"As I was going by Charing Cross" (sometimes referred to as "As I was going to Charing Cross"), is an English language nursery rhyme. The rhyme was first recorded in the 1840s, but it may have older origins in street cries and verse of the seventeenth century. It refers to the equestrian statue of King Charles I in Charing Cross, London, and may allude to his death or be a puritan satire on royalist reactions to his execution. It was not recorded in its modern form until the mid-nineteenth century. It has a Roud Folk Song Index number of 20564. ==Lyrics== Modern versions include:
As I was going by Charing Cross, I saw a black man upon a black horse; They told me it was King Charles the First- Oh dear, my heart was ready to burst!〔 The Roud Folk Song Index, which catalogues folk songs and their variations by number, classifies the song as 20564.〔("Searchable database" ), ''English Folk Song and Dance Society'', retrieved 18 March 2012.〕
