"Low Bridge" lyrics

"Low Bridge"

Low bridge, ev'rybody down. Low bridge for we're comin' to the town
So you'll always know your neighbor and you'll always know your pal
If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal. If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal

I got a mule and her name is Sal. Well, fifteen miles on the Erie Canal
She's a good old worker and a good old pal. Fifteen miles on the Erie Canal. There's a

Low bridge, ev'rybody down. Low bridge for we're comin' to the town
So you'll always know your neighbor and you'll always know your pal
If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal. If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal

Get up, there, mule, here comes a lock. We'll reach town about six o'clock
Six o'clock's just an hour away, so make your tracks while we still got day

Low bridge, ev'rybody down. Low bridge for we're comin' to the town
So you'll always know your neighbor and you'll always know your pal
If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal. If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal

Damn that mule, she shore is lazy. Bound to drive a body crazy
Looked at me the other day. Said, "I ain't a-goin' till I eat my hay!"

Low bridge, ev'rybody down. Low bridge for we're comin' to the town
So you'll always know your neighbor and you'll always know your pal
If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal. If you've ever navigated on the Erie Canal
