The Auld Triangle

A hungry feeling
Came o'er me stealing
And the mice were squeeling
In my prison cell
And that auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

To begin the morning
A squirrel was bawling
Get up ye bousie!
And clean out your cell!
And the auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

The lads were sleepin'
Humpy Gussie was creepin'
As I lay weeping
For my girl Sal
And that auld triangle went jingle-jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal

Up in the female prison
There's seventy five women
And amongst them, I wish it was 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
