Erie Canal
I’ve got a mule, her name is Sal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
She’s a good old worker and a good old pal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
We’ve hauled some barges in our day
Filled with lumber, coal and hay
And we know every inch of the way
From Albany to Buffalo
Low bridge, everybody down
Low bridge for we’re coming to a town
And you’ll always know your neighbor,
You’ll always know your pal
If you’ve ever navigated on the Erie Canal
We better get along on our way ol’gal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
‘Cause you bet your life I’d never part with Sal
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
Get up there mule here comes a lock
We’ll make Rome about 6 o’clock
One more trip and back we’ll go,
Right back home to Buffalo.
Low bridge, everybody down
Low bridge for we’re coming to a town
And you’ll always know your neighbor,
You’ll always know your pal
If you’ve ever navigated on the Erie Canal
Where would I be if I lost my pal
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
I’d like to see a mule as good as my Sal
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
A friend of mine once got her sore
Now’s he’s got a broken jaw
She let fly with an iron toe
And kicked him back to Buffalo
Low bridge, everybody down
Low bridge for we’re coming to a town
And you’ll always know your neighbor,
You’ll always know your pal
If you’ve ever navigated on the Erie Canal
Low bridge, everybody down
Low bridge for we’re coming to a town
And you’ll always know your neighbor,
You’ll always know your pal
If you’ve ever made a living on the Erie Canal
Low bridge, everybody down
Low bridge for we’re coming to a town.
