„Wot Cher!“
„Wot Cher! Knocked 'em in the Old Kent Road“

is a British music hall comedy song written in 1891 by the actor and singer Albert Chevalier.

When first performed it was known simply as "Wot Cher!"

The song describes the sudden endowment of apparent wealth on a poor family.

The song's verse is in a minor key, and then the chorus moves into the relative major. (Zuerst in einer Moll- und dann in einer Dur-Tonart.)

It was sung and danced to by Shirley Temple and Arthur Treacher in the 1939 film The Little Princess. An abbreviated version was sung on an episode of The Muppet Show.
