Erie Canal
Verse 1:
I've got a mule,
Her name is Sal.
Fif-teen miles on the Er-ie Ca-nal.
She's a good old work-er,
and a good old pal,
fif-teen miles on the Er-ie Ca-nal.
We've hauled some bar-ges in our day,
filled with lum-ber, coal, and hay,
And we know ev'ry inch of the way,
From Al-ba-ny to Buf-fa-lo.
Chorus:
Low bridge! Ev'ry-bod-y down!
Low bridge! For we're com-in to a town!
And you'll al-ways know your neigh-bor,
You'll al-ways know your pal.
If you've ev-er nav-i-gat-ed
on the Er-ie Ca-nal.
Verse 2:
oh, where would I be if I lost my pal?
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal.
Oh, I'd like to see a mule good as Sal.
Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal.
A friend of mine once got her sore;
Now he's got a broken jaw,
'Cause she let fly with her iron toe
And kicked him into buffalo.
Chorus
