Ye Auld Triangle

Lyrics

A hungry feeling, came o'er me stealing
 And the mice, were squealing in my prison cell
 And that auld triangle went jingle jangle
 All along the banks of the Royal Canal
 Oh, to start the morning with warden bawling
 Get up out of bed you, and clean out your cell
 And that auld triangle went jingle jangle
 All along the banks of the Royal Canal
 The screw was peeping and the lag was sleeping
 As he lay weeping for his girl Sal
 And that auld triangle, went jingle jangle
 All along the banks of the Royal Canal
 On a fine spring evening, the lag lay dreaming
 And the seagulls were wheeling high above the wall
 And that auld triangle, went jingle jangle
 All along the banks of the Royal Canal
 Oh, the wind was sighing, and the day was dying
 As the lag lay crying in his prison cell
 And that auld triangle, went jingle bloody jangle
 All along the banks of the Royal Canal
 In the women's prison there are seventy women
 And I wish it was with them that I did dwell
 And that auld triangle, went jingle jangle
 All along the banks of the Royal Canal
