Doctor Foster
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For the healthcare information company, see Dr Foster.
Doctor Foster is a nursery rhyme. It originated in England.
- Doctor Foster went to Gloucester,
- in a shower of rain.
- He stepped in a puddle,
- right up to his middle,
- and never went there again!
The rhyme may be based on a story of Edward I of England travelling to Gloucester, falling off his horse into a puddle, and refusing to return to the city thereafter.
