I've Cmgot a Bb/Dmule and her Ebname is CmSal,

15 miles on the G7Erie CaCmnal

She's a good old Bb/Dworker and a Ebgood old Cmpal,

15 miles on the G7Erie CaCmnal

We've Ebhauled some barges in our Bbday

Fmfilled with lumber, coal and Cmhay

And every Bb/Dinch of the Ebway we Cmknow

From Albany to G7BuffaCmlo.

EbLow bridge, everyBbbody down

EbLow bridge 'cause we're Bbcoming to a town

And you'll Cmalways know your Bb/Dneighbor,

you'll Ebalways know your Cmpal

If you've ever navigated on the G7Erie CaCmnal.

Better look around for a job old gal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

You bet your life I'd never part with Sal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

Get 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

Where would I be if I lost my pal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

I like to see a mule as good as my Sal

Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal

A friend of mine once got a sore

Now he's got a broken jaw

'Cause she left fly with a iron toe

And kicked him back to Buffalo
