The Auld Triangle
A hungry feeling, it came o'er me stealing
And the mice they were squealing in my prison cell
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
To begin the morning, the warden was bawling
"Get up out'a bed, boy, and clean up your cell!"
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Well the screw was peeping and the lag lay sleeping
As I was weepin' for my gal, Sal
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
In the female prison there are seventeen women
And I wish to God it was with them that I did dwell
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
On a fine spring evenin', the lag lay dreaming
And the seagulls are wheelin' high above the wall
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
And the mice they were squealing in my prison cell
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
To begin the morning, the warden was bawling
"Get up out'a bed, boy, and clean up your cell!"
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
Well the screw was peeping and the lag lay sleeping
As I was weepin' for my gal, Sal
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
In the female prison there are seventeen women
And I wish to God it was with them that I did dwell
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
On a fine spring evenin', the lag lay dreaming
And the seagulls are wheelin' high above the wall
And the auld triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
