The Auld Triangle

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
