The Dubliners - The Old Triangle lyrics

[The Dubliners - The Old Triangle lyrics]

A hungry feeling, came o'er me stealing
And the mice 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, a screw was bawling
Get up you bowsie, and clean up your cell
And the auld triangle, went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

The lags were sleeping
Humpy Gussy was creeping
As I lay there weeping for my girl Sal
And the auld triangle, went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

Up in the female prison
There are seventy five women
'Tis among them I wish I did dwell
Then the auld triangle
Could go jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
