Bruce Springsteen Erie Canal Lyrics

Erie Canal Lyrics

I've got a mule and 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 haul'd some barges in our day

Filled with lumber,
coal, and hay

We know every inch of the way

From Albany to
Buffalo



Low bridge, everybody down

Low bridge, yeah we're
coming to a town

And you'll always know your neighbor

And you'll
always know your pal

If ya ever navigated on the Erie Canal



We'd better look around for a job, old gal

Fifteen miles on the Erie
Canal

You can bet your life I'll never part with Sal

Fifteen miles
on the Erie Canal



Get up 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



Low bridge, everybody down

Low bridge, we're
coming to a town

You'll always know your neighbor

And you'll always
know your pal

If ya ever navigated on the Erie Canal



Where
would I be if I lost my pal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

I'd
like to see a mule good as my Sal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal



A friend of mine once got her sore

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 'cause we're coming to a
town

You'll always know your neighbor

And you'll always know your
pal

If ya ever navigated on the Erie Canal



Low bridge,
everybody down

Low bridge, we're coming to a town

You'll always
know your neighbor

And you'll always know your pal

If ya ever
navigated on the Erie Canal



Low bridge, everybody down*

Low
bridge, we're coming to a town*

You'll always know your neighbor*

And you'll always know your pal*

If ya ever navigated on the Erie
Canal*



Low bridge, everybody down

Low bridge, we're coming
to a town

Hooo...
