The Auld Triangle Songtext
von Colm R. McGuinness

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 out your cell

And the auld triangle, went jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal


The lags were sleeping, humpy Gussy was peeping
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
And among them I wish I did dwell

And that auld triangle, could go jingle jangle
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
All along the banks of the Royal Canal
