15 Miles on the Erie Canal

I've got a mule her name is Sal,

Fifteen miles on 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,we must be getting near a town,

You can always tell your neighbor

You can always tell your pal,

If he's ever navigated on the Erie canal.

Low bridge, everybody down, Low bridge,

I've got the finest mule in town,

Once a man named Mike Mcginty

Tried to put it over Sal,

Now he's way down at the bottom of the Erie Canal.
