The Erie Canal (Explicit)

I've got a mule, her name is Sal,

15 miles on the Erie Canal

She's a good old worker and a good old pal,

15 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 better get along on our way ol'gal,

15 miles on the Erie Canal

'Cause you bet your life I'd never part with Sal,

15 miles on the Erie Canal.

Git 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.
