Burl Ives was a folksinger and actor-- not a songwriter. The Erie Canal song was written long before Mr. Ives, and presumably sometime after 1825 when the canal was built. There were a lot of songs written about the Erie and other canals, just like there would be a lot of songs written about trains after trains made canals obsolete.
