Erie Canal

(アルバム： American Folk Songbook - 2011)

I've got a mule and her name is Sal
15 miles on the Erie Canal
She's a good ol' worker and a good ol' pal
15 miles 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

Low bridge, everybody down (Low bridge, everybody down)
Low bridge, yeah we're coming to a town (Low bridge)
You'll always know your neighbor
You'll always know your pal
If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal

We better look around for a job ol' gal
15 miles on the Erie Canal
'Cause you can bet your life I'd never part with Sal
15 miles on the Erie Canal

Get on Mule, we're passed that lock
We'll make Rome 'bout six o'clock
One more trip, and back we'll go
Right back home to Buffalo

Low bridge, everybody down (Low bridge, everybody down)
Low bridge, yeah we're coming to a town (Low bridge)
You'll always know your neighbor
You'll always know your pal
If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal (If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal)

Where would I be if I lost my pal?
15 miles on the Erie Canal
I'd like to see a mule good as my Sal
15 miles on the Erie Canal

A friend of mine once got her sold
Now he's got a broken jaw
'Cause she let fly with an iron toe
And kicked him back to Buffalo

Low bridge, everybody down (Low bridge, everybody down)
Low bridge, yeah we're coming to a town (Low bridge)
You'll always know your neighbor
You'll always know your pal
If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal (If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal)
Low bridge, everybody down (Low bridge, everybody down)

Low bridge, yeah we're coming to a town (Low bridge)
You'll always know your neighbor
You'll always know your pal
If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal (If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal)
