The Auld Triangle lyrics

A hungry feeling came o'er me stealing And the mice were squealing in my prison cell And the old triangle went jingle jangle All along the banks of the royal canal To begin the morning the screw was bawling "Get up, ya bowsie, and clean up your cell" And the old triangle went jingle jangle All along the banks of the royal canal The screw was peeping, Humpy Gussy was sleeping As I lay there dreaming of my girl, Sal And the old triangle went jingle jangle All along the banks of the royal canal Up in the female prison there are seventy-five women And 'tis among them I wish I did dwell Then the old triangle could go jingle jangle All along the banks of the royal canal All along the banks of the royal canal 1
