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

Chorus:
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'd better get along on our way old gal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
'Cause you bet your life I'd never part with Sal,
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
Git up there mule, here comes a lock
We'll make Rome 'bout 6 o'clock
One more trip and back we'll go
Right back home to Buffalo

[Chorus]
