Erie Canal Song

Erie Canal Song by Thomas S. Allen

I've got an old mule and her name is Sal


Fifteen years on the Erie Canal

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

Fifteen years on the Erie Canal


We've hauled some barges in our day

Filled with lumber, coal, and hay

And every inch of the way we know

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


And you'll always know your pal

If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal
