Low Bridge (song)

The popular song "Low Bridge, Everybody Down" was written by Thomas S. Allen (although some have questioned its origins ), recorded in 1912, and published by F.B. Haviland Publishing Company in 1913. It was written after the construction of the New York State Barge Canal, which would replace the Erie Canal, was well underway, furthering the change from mule power to engine power, raising the speed of traffic. Also known as "Fifteen Years on the Erie Canal", "Fifteen Miles on the Erie Canal", "Erie Canal Song", "Erie Barge Canal", and "Mule Named Sal", the song memorializes the years from 1825 to 1880 when the mule barges made boomtowns out of Utica, Rome, Syracuse, Rochester, and Buffalo, and transformed New York into the Empire State.

The music cover published in 1913 depicts a boy on a mule getting down to pass under a bridge, but the reference to "low bridge" in the song refers to travelers who would typically ride on top of the boats. The low bridges would require them to get down out of the way to allow safe passage under a bridge.

Examples of use of low bridge
1. He was holding them above his head." Mr Hancy had driven his Mitsubishi 4x4 under a low bridge in Gloucester when he smashed into a Citroen car which was already submerged.
2. "The whole trip was blighted, really, because on the trip back to Ostend the next morning, following our night in a hotel, the driver switched off his sat–nav – but ended up on a road with a low bridge that he couldn‘t get under.

4. "The problem is ‘blind reliance‘. If people were using a map they would be more likely to question whether a bridge was high enough for their vehicle but it‘s staggering to what extent people are blindly relying on technology." Freight Transport Association director Geoff Dossetter agreed: "Satnavs are wonderful for drivers in unfamiliar territory but if a road sign says ‘low bridge ahead‘ there really shouldn‘t be any doubt about what that means.
