lyrics

A hungry feeling came o'er me stealing
And the mice were squealing in my prison cell
we begin the mornings wi’ the warden bawling
'Get up you bed you and clean up your cell'
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

On a fine spring evening the lag lay dreaming
As the seagulls were wheeling high above the wall
While the day was dying and the wind was sighing
And I lay there crying in my prison cell
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

The wind was rising and the day declining
As I lay pining in my prison cell
While the Screw was peeping and the lags were sleeping,
And I lay weeping for my girl Sal
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

In the Women’s prison there are seventy five women
And I wish it was with them that I did dwell
And the old triangle went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
