I've Bmgot a A/C#mule and her Dname is BmSal,

15 miles on the F#7Erie CaBmnal

She's a good old A/C#worker and a Dgood old Bmpal,

15 miles on the F#7Erie CaBmnal

We've Dhauled some barges in our Aday

Emfilled with lumber, coal and Bmhay

And every A/C#inch of the Dway we Bmknow

From Albany to F#7BuffaBmlo.

DLow bridge, everyAbody down

DLow bridge 'cause we're Acoming to a town

And you'll Bmalways know your A/C#neighbor,

you'll Dalways know your Bmpal

If you've ever navigated on the F#7Erie CaBmnal.

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
