1. 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 haul’d some barges in our day,
Fill’d with lumber, coal and hay
And we know ev’ry inch of the way
From Albany to Buffalo.
Refrain:
Low Bridge, ev’rybody down!
Low bridge, for we’re going through a town,
And you’ll always know your neighbor,
You’ll always know your pal,
If you ever navigated on the Erie Canal.
2. We 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 six o’clock,
One more trip and back we’ll go
Right back home to Buffalo.
Refrain:
