The source can be Googled for. It was a huge cannon mounted on a wall in ancient England. It fell, taking down part of the wall, and royal troops could not raise it back to its mount. Note the actual nursery rhyme doesn't say "egg".

No it doesn't, however if you get the book of "Nursery rhymes" the writer illustrates him as an egg. I have seen this in several of the books by different authors. I can't say who was the first person to come up with the idea but it does make sense because once an egg is all cracked up, you can't put it back together again..
