lirik lagu erie canal str8 fax – yung_hairball

now the erie c-n-l, was more than just a creek
cuz over three hunna miles is pretty chic
my name is harry and my rhymes on fleek
spit more facts than orlie and zeke

now back in 1819, the economy dove
sank lower than ya test average in falkove
so my homie james geddes said to benjamin wright
“bro, this whole c-n-l thing, you sure it’s all right?”
the economy’s bad, this could easily flop
how we gonna build, if we don’t have the guap?”

but benjamin said, “nah listen to me
land transport takes too long, it’s kinda od
mail is too slow, and i don’t mean to be cr-ss
but it takes longer than jacob coming to cl-ss

so this is gonna be the best c-n-l in town
we’ll start at albany, and work our way down
we can end in eerie, talk about a great lake
back to back waterways, like we channeling drake

it’ll lower trading costs by 95 percent
bout to be the biggest thing since the treaty of ghent”

well it took about 8 whole years to build
and production costs shot up past 7 mil
but james geddes and ben wright were hanging pretty chill
cuz they knew they had congress, payin the bill

now the merchants could get, where they wanted to go
by just boating up the river, put the ‘row’ in ‘monroe’

but it wasn’t all good, i’m finna go on a tangent
cuz some things they don’t teach in american pagent

to work on the c-n-l was pretty intense
but the workers only got about 85 cents
for each day on the job; not a great expense
minimum wage so low, weren’t making much sense

so the c-n-l left some sittin poor and needy
workday longer than the homework falkove posts on weebly

and to build the c-n-l, they needed 36 locks
and they needed clear land, so they fought the mohawks
charged the indians with their old school glocks
then gave em blankets like, “don’t mind the smallpox”

but instead of land travel, merchants had a better option
the c-n-l hit the country harder than the monroe doctrine

so then, in the end, while some time it took
c-n-l was so helpful, it had other countries shook
“first manmade c-n-l” went in every record book
wasn’t a bigger sea, till they came the seabrook
